Mind you it does have free postage. another decimal point disaster, you would think he would notice when the ebay fees are calculated. Dont you have to pay a percentage upfront for a buy-it-now? not sure what the % is for £5900 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
C&WR Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 But unless I'm missing something £590 is still a heck of a lot of money, while £59 a bit of a steal! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Re6/6 Posted October 3, 2013 RMweb Gold Share Posted October 3, 2013 I would assume that it's a 'typo muddle'. I've just bought a nice little Swiss loco at a good bid price. Delivered when I asked it to be. Would deal again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems that it will 'P87ed' to run on the Quai! A pity that it didn't arrive before S4um, you could have turned the wheels for it. You were certainly enjoying yourself Ivan! I'll have to keep a lookout. Do you have any 'older' Swiss wagons or coaches that would go with a Tigerli T3 tank? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Horsetan Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 (edited) .... Do you have any 'older' Swiss wagons or coaches that would go with a Tigerli T3 tank? There may still be some. The last batch of stock that went on eBay did include a small number of Ep.II/III vehicles. I'd like to get the rest of the C5/6 turned down to P87, now that it's shown it can be done. But that may mean having to build a new (sprung) chassis for it..... Edited October 3, 2013 by Horsetan Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
'CHARD Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 I have asked the question of the seller. This once I'd love it to be a genuine error that's remedied. I've had a response: "Thanks for the message - I should have made it clear that the tender is included. I will amend the listing now. many thanks again," Common sense prevails!!!

valeofyork Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 I wonder why it didn't sell? Probably would have gone for over 300 if the starting price had been lower - several in this livery have gone for silly amounts recently. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it is from the USA. Quite typical for books. I have seen several priced in this bracket but have eventually picked them up from UK sellers for not much more than £25.
