Wolseley Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 After his success with a "raft' of Maunsells, now this!!! https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/LNER-0-6-0-CLASS-J13-00-by-Hornby-DCC-FITTED/362382898988?hash=item545fb4372c:g:uqEAAOSw57BbRZoY Victor Meldrew, come on down! There is something rather piscean odour-wise about the bids on his items methinks? Cheers from Oz, Peter C. He seems to sell quite a few "rafts" of coaches. Something for the boat trains maybe?

RMweb Premium kevinlms Posted July 17, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted July 17, 2018 Is the high price possibly because they're rarer in Oz and the cost is still less than postage there from the UK? No, its because they're the much rarer LMS coaches. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

leopardml2341 Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 (edited) Confession time. I fell prey to the if it's on eBay it must be a bargain - paid 20% over the list price for something and what's worse it was to Horsetan of this parish But, not all bad as the postage charges are much less so still happy days.

Its wheels weren't even in proportion, and I had selected its features as beautiful. Beautiful! Great God! The horrendous green bodywork scarcely covered the work of whitemetal, frames and gears beneath; its handrails were of a brilliant silver, if badly painted over the edge; the buffer beam of a shiny red; but these luxuriances only formed a more horrid contrast with the half-demolished cab, the interior of which seemed almost of the same colour as the damaged chassis on which it was set, its shrivelled appearance and short cab steps.' (with apologies to Mary Shelley) The standard of photography makes it a bit difficult to judge as well. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Earlier I got a 'worth another look?' email (I'd followed the link from here and viewed it) saying it hadn't gone up any more so possibly one bidder is at their limit?
