    Thirty two cents is about right. Those all look to be the later ones anyway. I've seen guys think they have a gold mine and ask $50 each, but geez, $153 each is a real push.

    How do you like the 4-6-0 with the mangled handrails and missing stack? Or three out of 4 tender steps broken off?

    Thirty two cents sounds about right.

    EBay thrives on the PT Barnum rule.

    What I didn't mention was that mine are complete with nothing broken and they work too. (I have the switcher in front and the big Pacific in the back.)

    That SW looks like something a well intentioned youngster created. In the end, it is not much more than a parts source.

    For ONE HOPPER??????????
    This is insanity. But you know if he finds someone to pay that much, have at it.:rolleyes:

    A thought: that's a beautiful car, but I'd almost be afraid to handle it.

    I spent $25 on 5 GP9's (GP7) with those drives, and they had complete shells and hand rails too.

    Goodness. The first link is stuff from the bad old Bachmann days. The second is just....what can I say? But look at his rating, he's sold thousands of items so he's figured something out. Would somebody pay that much??
