Zero feedback + location China + photo lifted from the auction which closed last week = scam. (I wonder how it works?)
Didn't someone recently put up a post about a pre-war Dinky tank with a similar listing (Chinese, zero feedback)?

There´s a nice 32c Petrol Tanker with WHITE grille. Not mint, but price is OK imho. And you get some extra models to restore..

I have a copy of the second edition which I always take with me to swapmeets. However, as a reference work for on the shelf, I would suggest the fourth and final edition (if you can find one!).

Rear step 46-b Pickfords. Played with but not destroyed. About the same condition as the one I have so I'll pass. Maybe these aren't worth this much played with but they don't seem too common. Take a gamble on the door being pushed all they way up too...

I have added a proper working link as Mike's was incomplete.
