009 micro modeller Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 Used railway tickets have been sold for decades but not usually at such a high price.

Giving the seller the benefit of the doubt and that it was still valid when first listed (seeing that it says "will" about the expiry date), I thought these things were not transferable and only usable by the person named on the card. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robin Verth Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 It is described as kit built, with a Triang chassis. It certainly isn't Sir Dinadan, it even has a bogie tender, which Sir D didn't, so I don't see any problem with it. It looks like an old Wills Fincast kit the King Arthur class used a cut down Britania chassis I had one about 45 years ago the kit came with an 8 wheel tender. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you were as dishonest as some of the sellers previously featured, you could get an unboxed one from somewhere, put it in the box and then sell it for even more, claiming it's mint in box. Or you could get a Polo, put it in a little container and do the same. Hat, coat... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rail-Online Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 There is nothing wrong with the loco (except the lack of detail such as lamp irons and the dreadful application of transfers onto a matt surface), but I cannot understand the 'cash back' option "I like to offer a chance to buy items straight away but feel eBay makes it too expensive. So, use Buy-it-Now and receive a £20.00 refund via PayPal." What is the point in this? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/00-OO-Works-SR-Wainwright-H-Class-in-BR-Late-Crest-31193-Kit-built-2/183438863282?hash=item2ab5ceebb2:g:myYAAOSwks1bn3xU Tony Tony Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
