Works out to $20 per plus shipping.

Somebody needs to find that seller and slap him up back side a the head over the second photo. Geez. My eyes are still crossed.

That's a scheme that can be hard to apply too. Wish they used different plans than these Kasiners.

To bad the seller can't take pictures so you can see how the paint and lettering really looks. :shock:

I agree with Butch. Those are so blurry you cannot tell whether these are junk or gems!

I just sent the seller an email through ebay's system asking to post clear, sharp photos; I am curious to see if he will.

He did add some better photos.

All it took. Couple of better photos and they sold for $157 something.

Yeah, but aside from maybe the rpo-baggage and tail car (if your vision is still really-really-really blurred)
none of those Kasiner car plans were appropriate for a KCS train.
Not a coach in the bunch, but a GN diner & baggage-rpo, a prewar NYC-PRR 18 roomette, a 24 duplex (only one smooth side in the Pullman pool) and a prewar NYC observation which wound up on the Vandy and then got sold to the B&O.
I get how few really care about getting passenger cars in the same zip code as the road they're modeling, but it's tiresome to see.

Still glad to see the seller wised up with his photos and got a decent price for the "set" such as it is.

Like my SC coaches. Letterboard says NYC, reporting marks P&LE, I think. Next one will be B&A. Subsidiaries of the vaunted NYC, and few know what's right, so I get away with it!
