have to say sonny i have not seen a bronze one for sale yet mate, so price is hard to tell right now

Thx for the info mate.

Just made an correction on my question. I actually have both versions, bronze and dark metallic grey, bought them at Zwolle, only three where seen for sale there by me and a friend, I bought one, and ,my friend is still sad he didnt. There was 1 for sale at 200 euros, and the 2 other for 110 euros each.

I guess it was a lucky buy for me as I didnt know how rare it was till I had a closer look at the box when I came home.

Is this a copy of the FTF bronze Valtra or a real one  \ \ \

Cashing in on FTF ideas or what?

Well, guess everybody agrees its a copy.

But can anybody tell me what I am to expect paying for a genuine one ?? .

Sonny

Edit: Ãctually I have both, Bronze and dark metallic grey versions, but I would like to know how much the going rate is for the bronze version.

Hi

Nice tractor.

MÃ¥ sige jeg er imponeret over at du selv har bygget den.

Kind regards

Sonny

Hi

I have a couple of pictures of a couple of models I bought for a friend about a year ago. I bought them from a dutch guy who made them himself, I'm guessing you are copying bonnet and cab from his models?.

Sonny

Hi

I will be there with a couple of other Dane's.

Will bring a ltd. ed. 75 pcs. gold DBP County 75 jubilee for sale if anybody is interested.

Sonny

and not a tractor this tiome but a MF190 baler,been at this for a while now...these are a major build

Hi

Great looking baler.

How much is a Hesston baler??

Regards

Sonny

Now their nice,the Plough will be hard to get seen as there is only 100 of them,and I'd say alot gone already to close friends!

Juergen told me that 90 should be available at the Kverneland booth, and a few at his website, not many was given out as gifts before Agritechnica.

Sonny

Argh, was just about to post pictures of mine.

Is Atte the only one going ? I thought there were others going as well.

I can hardly wait to find out what the Agrartoy and Claas model of the year will be.

Aargh, so hard not to tell, I know the Agrartoy model, but promised not to tell until the first day of Agritechnica. I have number 98 of 100 which I got as a special gift from Agrartoy.

Would love to go to Agritechnica, but had too choose between it and Zwolle, and Zwolle won

Sonny

It is a genuine Britains plough but as said, was one from one of the sets, something akin to the rear Twose type digger and post-hole borers, in different colours in different sets.

Hi

If you take a good look at it you will see its not a Britains, the frame has a round support bar, the Britains version has a square bar.

Sonny

The madness of eBay strikes again - I recently sold a few items all with postage to UK only.  What did I receive - about three questions 'how much to send to Turkey' being one of them.    Then the winner of one item (despite me mailing him to alert him) was from Denmark!  He then tries to get me to post to Denmark.  I eventually sold it to second highest bidder and took the issue up with eBay.  Wait for it - I can't leave negative feedback - apparently sellers can no longer leave negative feedback for buyers.

I don't use eBay that often to sell items and this experience has firmly reminded me why.

Hi

To be honest I dont see a problem in buyers asking an ebay seller politely if he or she will change shipping policy and send out of the resident country. Being from Denmark, (and not the guy who won one of your auctions), I often ask before bidding, if a seller is willing to change shipping policy and send to Denmark, most sellers are willing, and if not I accept it right away. So perhaps if you did use ebay more for selling you wouldnt be surpriced by the shipping questions.

Sonny

Hi

Yes, I have bougth it, it will not arrive till next week though.

Sonny

Lots of great news

That Deutz 130.06 sounds like something for me.

Nobody's quite close to guessing the Agrartoy model yet ; I know but promised not to tell

Regards

Sonny

Hi

Sure, no problem, I'm cleaning out my collection anyway, will try and get you a picture sometime next week.

Sonny

2 more, dont fancy parting with one do you :D

Hi

Hmmm, somewhere I have 2 other green trailers, dont know which version the decals are, also have the blue with Claas in a box of bits somewhere in the toolshed.

Regards

Sonny

Yes, I am mostly colecting CaseIH and Internationals, so thought I should clean out the collection a bit, have about 100 lots going on a Danish auction site when I get time, already have taken the pictures

Sonny

thats interesting Sonny... I'l see if I can find any advertising (merchandising is the English word) material by Reindeer... I do have some 1960's merchandising catalogues somewhere

Sooo, did you ever get around to looking in the 1960's catalogues

Sonny

Hi

I am thinking about buing this rare green high sided tipper from a contact, so I'm wondering how much its worth, so I know what to offer him.

Thx

Sonny

Hmm, guess I am going blind then. Didnt get the date rigth.

Thanks guys

A bit foolish actually as I will be at Traktorado at Husum in Germany that weekend. Will make sure to take pictures for you guys. www.traktorado.de

Sonny

Hi

Was looking for a Toytrac report with lots of pictures, but cant find one, am I going blind??

Greetings from Denmark

Sonny

Hi

Was looking for a Spalding report with lots of pictures, but cant find one.

Greetings from Denmark

Great. I really hope to find accurat information on this one.

Sonny

Hi

Might be close to the answer now. A Danish collectors who has been collecting for more than 40 years tells me that its an item made by a company called Reindeer, and its from 1969, the company made items for adverticing (dont know the exact word in english)merchandicing  (Thx, Lord Ferguson) it was probably an item you got when buying a new Massey Ferguson 175.

Sonny

Is there really no help

Sonny

Just had a look in the Crilley and Burkholder book and it does seem to be an Ertl model from 1965.

The book goes on to say that there are decal variations, metal or plastic wheels, with or without front weight brackets. Some weight brackets are red whilst others are grey.

Hi

There's is no company name on it, which I have never seen an Ertl model without, and its all made in plastic. So I dont think its an Ertl model. Also scale is not 1/16, much closer to 1/25.

Thx for the info though

Sonny
