For Weaver Bradley coaches? Really? This isn't 4/1 again is it?
He could be smoking something.

Now you went and blabbed and everyone will be bidding!

But Wait! There's more! Now up to 12k, with this added:
"& 2 Pullman Bradley Flat Bed Coaches With Box ( Only )"

Does that mean only the box for another thou?

Years ago when I was going to school, there was a bit of graffiti in one of the lavatories:

Is this place being run by lunatics that are serious or geniuses that are putting us on?

I think you can apply that here. I'd be more interested in knowing if these people actually think anyone will respond, and if they do, that they will actually pay.

Lunatics! Started at 11K, went to 12K with added cars, now 14K .

I just noticed! I do not think that were any added cars, just poor word usage.

Remember the "missing" box or, rather, the car without a box? Well, the box just showed up :

Bangor and Aroostook two cars, $400.00

If that first listing were New Haven, I would be on it like flies on a doughnut.

Whatever this guy is drinking, I don't want any; I gave up mind altering substances a long time ago,

On second thought, I agree.

So....I have a couple three questions.
Having never to the best of my knowledge purchased any Weaver stuff, what am I really seeing?

Why does the listing mention (after it went to 12K) "Parts Are Now Included"?
The boxes with supposedly passenger cars in them......based upon the angles of the contents, the two photos of boxes are same two boxes from different angles. And that may or may not be a passenger car. It IS the floor/seat section in both boxes. Other photos show all the car vestibule ends, one of a truck, one of steps, one of interior bits.

Are there uber-rare items kits? Or did someone take plain or undec cars apart, paint and letter, and never finish putting them back together again?

First two photos appear to be snagged from elsewhere, don't think they are the kit form items being flogged.

Vestibule ends....at least 8 of them.

Loose interior bits. Adds $5K for "Parts now included".

At least one truck...where are the rest?

Look, Martha! A date! Add another $3,000 to the bin pricing!

Sure looks like seats to me...

Go down a couple three photos, you'll see one of the car photos with description the flogger snagged from TCA for his sale.

Now they are $17,000!

It was still 14 this morning when we left home.

This has all the appearances of scam.

Kit form, no photos of the actual cars, the (box only) comment is strange...like when you complain, he can state you bought the (box only).

Ever seen Weaver passenger car kits, painted?
