Whew hew!!!!!! What a deal this is for $1.475.00. When he says no box, I'm sure he means no GEAR box. (No motor either!)..................

Yeah, but an "Expert" told him Cliff Grandt may have built it! A DNA test may be in order here.

Maybe. The number of estates that are coming to market is increasing; just have to attend the bigger O Scale meets like the Chicago meet to see the tables full of estate items or entire estates. Last year's Nat'l had a large estate that I was informed was the 3rd or 4th truck load being sold.

In most cases on eBay. estate means . I bought it to flip it high and don't feel like testing or looking into the condition of it. don't hold me responsible if it's broke.

You left out all too frequently actually ignorant of what they are actually selling, believing it's equal to a winning Powerball ticket.....vs. totally listing in the wrong category, and grossly under pricing it.

The prototype? I don't think so.

A model of it? No idea but with his talent he could build anything he wanted.

Since this is an estate find, maybe the seller can get off his lazy azz and find the gear box, motor and box the model came in.

Gotta love these type of sellers, selling a polished turd. :?

Puffing. Accepted practice on used car lots. Why wouldn't we expect it here?
