Interesting. Says you can only buy at BIN, and you really have to scroll down to find that.
$1700.

No idea who made it, opening bid (and you can only BIN?) is $21.00, 4 days left.

Says it can only be sold at BIN price yet a bid is listed.

C&LS SP 4-10-2. Arguably, one of the finest O Scale models ever built. I've seen them draw more the $5000. The seller screwed up their listing.

The price is right.

I do wonder about the missing hatches though.

I suspect the listing is a fraud. Good friend tells me the photos are from a listing that closed months ago.

We'll see.

Format of the auction was incorrect for a BIN. Price was way too low for that loco in decent condition. Had a fishy smell from the get go.

That offer is still in an open window on my PC.

The offerings at the bottom are similarly ludicrous.

One:

Mth G Scale Union Pacific Big Boy 4004

$21.00

but the killer is:

live steam 7.14 7.25 gauge bassett lowke 0 6 0 tank engine

$21.00

shipping: + $20.00 shipping 0 bids


That's a 7-1/2" gauge live steamer for $21.00, plus $20 to ship it!
