    EBay madness

    Yes the very early ones were made as per the picture
  2. I very much doubt if it has anything to do with the hack just pure bad luck. I have sent numerous emails to the same address and once in a while one "bounces back".
  3. Or more likely thoroughly investigating the claim to ensure that it has been lost
  4. I would have thought that EVERYTHING came/was despatched from the warehouse. The clue is in the name
  5. Am I missing something here How can somebody drive and be on the phone at the same time hands free or not ? No mobile phones in cars should include hands free set ups as well as ordinary mobiles
  6. RE post 2768 2 shillings and six old pence was often written as 2/6d
  7. A fair few people as has been noted earlier in this post. It ain`t been out of the box/used honest guv is the most heard phrase when purchasing model railway equipment ... often said when looking at a Mainline Royal Scot that has ben to America and back several times.
  8. It all comes to those who wait patience is a virtue
  9. Try living on a one way street apart from the cyclists which cannot read the signs it is surprising how many motorists can`t. We have also had cars and lorries reversing up the street and to cap it all last night a driver actually did a three point turn and drove off going the wrong way !. Fair enough the odd culprit is a stranger but the vast majority are locals who know the area and sometimes get a nasty shock when plod is waiting round the corner
  10. Blame the sat navs people who use them can`t think for themselves. On the approach to Bath recently when the A36 was closed signage was in place telling you to follow the diversion signs together with signs saying Drivers TURN OFF SAT NAVS and follow the official signs.
  11. Patience is a virtue. As stated before not all items in catalogue may be made sometimes items are announced to judge reaction and possible orders. Hence no or slow orders project held back popular model production advanced. Common sense when you think about it. Other manufacturers are just as bad yet to produce anything no names no pack drill
  12. And back at the starting point what have we all achieved ? Nothing I suspect
  13. If it is going to break it will break with or without the somehow " Magical Full Service History ". As stated it just proves the car has been looked at it might not even have been serviced
  14. As stated before peoples concept of the true value of their goods is often way way short of the ACTUAL value
  15. May be in a shrinking market reality has kicked and they at long last realise that you have to make a profit to stay in business
  16. Some people have a [very] inflated idea of what their model is worth believe you me
  17. Why not send it back to Bachmann ? If bought new it will have 12 months warranty and this should solve your issue
  18. On the same vein but with airlines TWA Try Walking Across BOAC Bloody old and creaky
  19. Catalogues are showing what is intended to be produced it does not always mean that they will produced in the year they are announced. Sometimes an item is announced to gauge interest and if there is none it is dropped. Roco are past masters at this. It is time people chilled out realised this
