Still way to many regular wheels, king size, major packs and others that I want before I go to the "dark side".

UUgh Superfast - silly coloured cars with funny wheels and start of the downward slide of Lesney. What was wrong with real looking cars ??
Watching Grahams sales with interest ( why do some idiots jump in and then go up by 1 quid at a time trying to outdo one another - haven't they heard of sniping !! ) it just pushes up the prices - set your limit, set snipe and sit back and relax - you either win or you don't. I think some of these 'bidder' think they are at a real live auction - go figure.
