Bargin Excelsior Bagnall

Post by FWLR » Fri May 31, 2024 3:46 pm

I could have sworn I put this up the other day, but I can't find it now. Still I am putting it up again because it was still for sale yesterday for about Β£150 and did write that if I had the money it would be in my collection, but alas money being tight now it's out of my reach.

Anyway I got an email to say that it had closed at Β£160 and sold, but now it's back on again at the same price when I saw it a few days back. It's back up at Β£31 again. Is it someone trying to resell it or is something else happing here.

I was watching that too, only out of interest to see what it sold for.
It has reappeared from the same seller, so something went wrong with the sale.
It is a nice looking loco which is possibly the promotional model from PDF Models?

It says it is built by Tony Hill, who I believe is the guy built the layout Melin Llechi which you may have seen at shows, and whose garden railway is Ambercross which I recall seeing videos of in lockdown - he is an excellent modeller, his videos on creating rust effect with oil paint are as close to magic as you can get as far as I'm concerned.

..... and whether it's offered a third time if not reaching it's expected price?
