Not only could I ventilate the front room, I could fish the offending object out of the fire and chuck it in the front garden sharpish. Were you interrogated by Miss Riding Hood thereafter re the pong?? 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Each to their own, but I can't believe people buy that cr@p. They must have a lot of money, no idea what to spend it on and nothing better to do. 1 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium John M Upton Posted August 30 RMweb Premium Share Posted August 30 Interesting, the two main drivers of the insane bidding, one has a feedback score of just three, the other has hidden their feedback as private. I smell a rat, the seller will be putting in a non paying bidder report I reckon. 1 4 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrWolf Posted August 30 Share Posted August 30 At the rate the bidding is going on those coaches, I expect we will see quite a few sets coming on the market. Eventually, once the got to have it at any price brigade all have a set of ten, prices will level out and then fall. It's the same for most things. 3 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ollie K Posted August 30 Share Posted August 30 Truly bananas (I’ve been watching the same listing.) Surely it’s approaching the sort of price one could pay a professional model maker to build a set of ‘authentic’ LNER six-wheeler coaches! 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have clearly missed out as well. The LNER set is nearly as much as I paid for a 2.0l Volkswagen Golf estae at the beginning of the month! If I had bought some they would have paid for a car.

"Guard Surburban Coach" is a new one, why not just call it a Brake Third? And it does mention its a 3-rail model hidden in the item specifics, but not in the main description.... * Or even "bullet point"? 🤔 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
