Who in their right mind would pay £68.95 for a GWR Autocoach ????? I'm really miffed now that I sold my mint Airfix version which still had the original price on the box of £5.95.
Bachmann are now starting to take the the "P" big style, if folk keep buying stock at these prices this will not stop but escalate year by year, they know the "die hards" will always stump up the cash .
Yes I can afford to spend this kind of money before anyone asks, but I choose not to on a point of principal.
My other hobby is motorcycling with a new bike purchase every three years, Triumph's costs/servicing do not go up 15% in a year, yet Bachmann's go up in some cases over 100%.
It will serve them right if they are stuck with loads of unsold stock, which they will then after a period of time be forced to discount!!!
