Great models and boxes. A little jealous

Well done Dave, a great haul. Thought it was an interesting lot when when I first saw it up for grabs.

Thanks Rodger. The timing on seeing the request for the buy now by the other user and snapping them up saved a significant outlay. The other two lots of Superfast models by the same seller sold for nearly 4x the dollars per car for less valuable cars.tractorboy wrote:Well done Dave, a great haul.

For those interested the auction photo's of the two other lots I didn't win are below:
Lot 1



Lot 2 - more cars and more interest so the seller was cajoled into posting shots out of the box by several insistent buyers.






Cheers

There were some valuable boxes in this lot, Dave.
The SF6 Mercedes Tourer and of course the SF 76 to 79.
Would be nice to win this lot.

Re: Regular Wheels bulk lots - Great Timing
I'm not an expert in pricing on these by any means, the first lot of 50 odd cars went for 700 quid equivalent and the second lot of 70 odd cars 925 pounds. Does that tie up with your expectation, given what you're saying?

Re: Regular Wheels bulk lots - Great Timing
The simple maths gives each model a price of around £13 to £14 pounds sterling, so if a collector is happy with paying that amount at a toy collectors fair for a single model, I would say that is reasonable.
