Well, it's out of production, the casting technology is outdated and
the decals could be better but.... I thought I was fool for bidding a little over $50.00... Whoever this is, I've noticed his high bidding before. Hey, Steve (Funaro), how about doing these rebuilds again, you know the ones you did for Martin way back when with that brittle yellow resin. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?

That was a Sunshine 9.2. If you'd settle for an unfinished 9.1 (T&P 82000
series) I'd let go for 50 bucks.<G> -- Jim Hayes Portland Oregon |

The astonishing thing to me is not that there is one person willing to
pay $100 for an OOP Sunshine kit (everyone needs something badly and is willing to pay for it), it's that there are two people willing to pay that much! Regards, Ted Culotta |

Without resorting to hackneyed phrases, I will point out that Ebay attractsHmmm, why astonishing? It's a free market, correct?The astonishing thing to me is not that there is one person willing to a lot of bidders who have no idea of the value of items (I saw a brass item that was "in stock" at Overland for $50, get bid up to $500 on Ebay). Also, that bidder who paid $100 for one Sunshine kit also got many more for less than $30. (Check out his auction feedbacks.) Why complain? If you have been buying Sunshine kits all these years, it's like money in the bank! :o) Tim O'Connor <timoconnor@...> Sterling, Massachusetts |

really wants what is offered. I have purchased books for (in one case) $1.50, that sold a few weeks earlier for over $100.00. I have also seen things sell for well over current value. I love ebay, you can buy what ever you want for a price that is acceptable to you, as long as you are willing to wait.

Next item, same train set (no lie) $650. I can see a limited run resin kit in a larger scale (O, 1:24, 1:32) pushing $100. Building kits do already. Dave H. |
