I'm starting another as I have started buying more, the old thread got deleted. I'll be sticking with Autoart, UT, Minichamps, Exoto and Kyosho.
I currently have 8 pages of models I'm watching on eBay, I actually strted using my account again just to buy these checking newly listed items a few times a day for bargains, I'm getting addicted again.
I just bought THIS and I'm not sure whether I'm going to keep it or sell it on for a profit as they go for double, some times treble the price that the guy was asking for that one. There is currently two more on eBay for around £70. If it's a RHD model it will go for even more as they are far rarer, I cant tell if it is going off the advert.
I'll keep this updated for those interested in Diecast
so yeah, first buy of the year, this year is going to be expensive

What scale/colour?
The 1:18 scale evos go for silly money, especially the evo 6 rally versions like this...

1:43 still go for decent money, nothing compared to 1:18 though.

He is one of my saved sellers, I'll never buy off him due to the fact that his models go for daft money but they are always good to look at, he modifies them very well too.
His MK 2 golf for example

Stunning.

I have that, but all original in the original box.
Whoever's been buggering about with that example has ruined it.
