How much do you think it should be worth?
If that's what it done on eBay then that's what it's worth I'm just surprised it didn't go for more. If I would have seen it I would have bid more.

It started off as an auction, but was relisted as an auction with a £500 BiN.

So in other words someone offered the seller £500 and he took it ? oh well im sure there are a few collectors out there not to happy with this as imho it might have even reached a four figure sum. I prolly would have gone to 700 myself.

Hello Liddlecom! Your Trailer price is a fair one for both you and the Buyer. I had bought mine years ago for $200 U.S. that was Mint, so prices have gone up a bit on this one as the variation was publicized. The door surround indicates a bit of wear, so yours may have seen a bit of playwear years ago, but still displays very nice. Now you have a Forum full of collectors to watch your other diecast sales as you list them. kwakers

To be fair having blown up the pictures and seeing that there is some playwear, £500 is prolly about right although I would still have paid a little more if it were a live auction & I don't know why the seller decided to change it to a buy it now maybe he didn't fancy the gamble of seeing it at auction although I still think it would have sold for a little more. Looking forward to seeing the pics and I'm 90% sure it's the real deal. Fingers crossed for you Antonin.
