good day on the bay
i've had a result on ebay today, i'm most pleased, managed to win a cobra rattler, a cobra ferret, a cobra rifle range and a forward observer, all complete and for under £28. I'm having a good run, got a hydro sled for £4 the other day boxed and tactical battle platform for £12.50, is it me or are things going for quite cheap recently,

It seems to be later Joes I'm noticing. Earlier era stuff is doing well price wise, up to series 3. Making some nice prices. I then think soem sellers are seeing that, and listing lots of later stuff, flooding the market, and giving some abrgains to be had in the later ranges. Just my little analysis of the situation, for what it's worth.
I'm hoping the prices of our earlier Palitoy era stuff keeps soaring in the next few weeks - I'm putting together a rather large trades/sales list at the moment!

I still think the Hydro-sled was a good buy - 99p hammer price + postage
Rattler looks well cool

When confronted by a difficult problem you can solve it more easily by reducing it to the question. How would the Lone Ranger handle this?

Clucking bell!
It went that high??? Good going! That's two 40th AM's or so then? And a collector somewhere with a lovely shiny new (old)

Was really surprised and chuffed all at the same time (as I was looking at the Modellers Loft Website)!SteveD wrote:Clucking bell!

Unfortunately not Eddie - those will be remaining in the army, as I'm partial to the blue myself too.
