Kenton Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 Just looks like a bidding war between two bidders with more cash than sense. I expect when they sober up it will go to second chance offer then reappear in a few days with amore realistic asking price. That is stupid money to pay for a fancy box and a RTR loco Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garethp8873 Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 There is one ebayer I have seen around on ebay, who puts (SUPER) and (LOOK) in brackets next to the title of the model. Why do that?? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garethp8873 Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 Hi This person is always selling on ebay at over priced models Don't know where he get his prices from ...... This ebayer is one of the worst I have seen. Considering I have bought many of the wagons he has for around £5 at my local railway, I definitely know where I will be going for my next shop. Gareth.

RMweb Gold The Stationmaster Posted February 6, 2011 RMweb Gold Share Posted February 6, 2011 I can thoroughly recommend selling books via Amazon - it's a very simple process and for those leaving uni a good way of getting shot of textbooks as my lad found. And sometimes you can charge relatively high prices and get away with it - I sold a computer manual (in vg condition) for a fiver more than I paid for it 10 years back Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
M Graff Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 This is from the Swedish eBay site (Tradera). I have a hard time understanding why? Wagon Is it maybe so that all things with model trains are worth selling? And when we´re at it, let´s not forget this Gem: Three houses from RS modell They went for a whopping £275!!!!
