RMweb Gold BoD Posted January 2, 2015 RMweb Gold Share Posted January 2, 2015 Am i missing something here? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/TRIANG-R-/221647036297?pt=UK_Trains_Railway_Models&hash=item339b315f89 Username says a lot. Too much of one and not enough of the other. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's like a spreading disease and this item is so mundane that it certainly isn't worth the effort of looking.

Ruffnut Thorston Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 Change the number a blast of the airbrush ,http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/13079-Bachmann-Class-08-Expertly-Renumbered-Weathered-By-TMC-/261509427253?pt=UK_Trains_Railway_Models&hash=item3ce32d3035 I don't know how they can get away with these price they ask for?. So, I must be an expert, as I can do the re-numbering bit....though I don't have an airbrush.... 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Bernard Lamb Posted January 2, 2015 RMweb Premium Share Posted January 2, 2015 This just finished with no bids. Ignoring the asking price I find it astonishing that given the attention to detail spent on construction, wiring and packaging that the layout itself is so uninspired. I missed a bargain. Living within 25 miles I could have claimed the free delivery. Bernard Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you bought it and did NOT receive the complete loco I'm sure eBay would support a claim, besides who'd pay that much just for the body when... he also has this item http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/WRENN-W2229-B-R-BLUE-4-6-2-CITY-OF-GLASGOW-EXCELLENT-CONDITION/301364900361?_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851&_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIC.MBE%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D28111%26meid%3D509f41ac0cf74ea3b112e415bf8a3740%26pid%3D100005%26prg%3D11472%26rk%3D2%26rkt%3D6%26sd%3D371196893968&rt=nc which is definitely a "different" one as you can see from the tape marks on the box which is declared to be the entire loco AND is 5 quid cheaper?!?!??!
