Re: Vectis

Hi IanI think it will be a long time before Vectis have any viewers in the room. Its is amazing to see a 1000 models when they are sat on their boxes. I have always found Vectis to be very helpful, they do get good prices as they have 1000s of collectors on their books. Postage can be quite high app...

Vectis

Hi all, did anybody win anything at Vectis today . A lot of high prices, boxes seemed very poor to me. A couple of bits i fancied but couldn't be bothered to put a bid on Pete.

Re: What is going on with UK VAT & ebay

Hi all, Its been on the cards for sometime that Ebay was going to charge buyers & sellers a tax, just found out that you are going to have to pay for using paypal. I think they have all got to big & powerful Pete.

Re: Help, have I done the right thing, new UK Collector

Hi all, love the trailer its one box i have been after for years, shame about the box. I think they may have all come from trade packs when there is twelve of the model. You could try a few on the market that will test the market. Pete.

Re: Help, have I done the right thing, new UK Collector

Hi & welcome to the forum, looks some lovely boxes & models. looks a lot of the same models i should imagine they must have come out of a shop & its down to price. You must put a few close ups of the hard to find Pete.
