Hot tip offs (NO Live Auctions Please!)
Re: Hot tip offs
Not 100% certain whether anyone else will consider this (a turquoise deck RW 9d boat) a bargain but, if I didn't already have one, I'd be buying this one.
Re: Hot tip offs
I saw this one a week or so ago and comparing the trailer with the boat the colour seems clear. What concerned me was that this is one of two available in the listing and the description says "blue boat" so it's worth checking with the seller first.

Re: Hot tip offs
As you say, the colour seems clear (although the description doesn't seem to tally with the photographic evidence).
Personally, I think it's worth a punt, although I see that Nick only places a very minor premium on this colour variation which I find surprising given the extremely few occasions on which I have seen it for sale.

Re: Hot tip offs
It took me quite a long time to find mine and I like the colours, but perhaps the variations aren't as collectible for many. Just to be clear on this listing, it's a multi-listing currently showing one photo with two models originally available for sale. One has been sold with positive feedback left. Unless the seller has changed the description or listing picture, it's just possible that the photo isn't showing the remaining model for sale. The seller may have listed two boats, one blue and one turquoise on the multi-listing, and the turquoise model is the one that's already gone. I may be wrong, but worth double checking.Idris wrote:As you say, the colour seems clear (although the description doesn't seem to tally with the photographic evidence).

Re: Hot tip offs
I simply don't understand why this hasn't sold yet. The poor bloke has reduced the price from £75 (which was already a bargain) to a mere £50! Once again, if I didn't already have one, I'd have bought this one (and for the full £75 too).
Re: Hot tip offs
I was very surprised too, but I see it's now just been sold, perhaps someone saw this post. I know the windows had dropped but still a very desirable model.Idris wrote:I simply don't understand why this hasn't sold yet.

Cheap 40 Years book here, UK freepost. No picture but the condition is described as good, so maybe worth checking first.

I can buy a real one for less than that. For that price, it should come with a butler who will arrange it in my display and come dust it off once a month for life.


It might be time to start my "Bucket List."
