?85, one today would be 500% more than that I think!

I know some GAMA models are fairly sought after, does anyone know if this model is?

Does anyone know anything about or have seen this model about anywhere? on Ebay or in shops. Its made by Conrad and is an Eicher 3133 Tractor, looks nice and feels heavy

Thanks Nigel! got there in the end!! Mine is missing its seat unfortunately

Great Stuff! I think a working model such as an elevator is something Britains could benefit from out of todays market!!

Nigel... You simply write your message and then press "additional options" and next to attach you will see a "browse" button. You press that and search for the image you want to post, on your computer. You then press the post button below. Max size for a picture is 128kb

Below is the very Lister Elevator boxed, theres often a playworn unboxed model kicking about on ebay but Ive never seen a boxed one, anyone have an idea on the value of it boxed? I was thinking ?200+

It should arrive in the morning so all will be revealed

Yes they have moved a fair quantity of farm items recently, ebay fees must have been horrific!

So when I get this, im looking for a sticker to say its by SD FRater? And if theres no sticker?

Yeh I did. 9.99. I was told by Mr Varley that decals would be updated on the tractor, but since there doesnt seem to be any more about, I guess it is a modification.

Picked this up from ebay today, hadnt realised Britains has started updating the decal on this

In mint condition, ?10-12

I see no reason why anyone couldnt

According to Britains there were only 150 made and some were released as just a model for the proper vehicle rather than the RASE gold medal, im not sure whether Britains included the plinth with the models or whether they were added afterwards. As for the coating, it appeared to be very similar to the gold fastracs.

Ive seen two before, they were both in regular mb trac boxes and had no plinth at all. They were gold aswell and had not turned silver like the pullen book example. They sold for ?1400 each.

Hmm in my opinion not that much, ?20-25 would be a fair price I think, the promotional set that is worth a few quid is the 2 fiats, and 2 implements in a big multi pack box.

Yes its annoying, I found another address uhobbies@netvigator.com But Im guessing its quite old

I was more so looking for a contact email for trade queries or a number (for the uk)

Does anyone know of the main Universal Hobbies UK website? Is there one? Ive been to the universal hobbies.net site but doesnt really say anyything on there?

I didnt realise they made a 7710 set, whats the cat number on the box? I picked up a (9600) TW20 and irrigator set a while ago for ?60 which I thought was good as this was made for only one year, so I assume the 7710 would be even more valuable.

Britains only tend to release models that have a good market share for the uk in the real world so zetors and hurliamanns would be a big ask I think as there are not many tearing about in our fields. Although a special low number production model perhaps would be feasibile?

Guys, Although Bill is involved with some 1.32 models and is responsible for distributing them into the US, it is in fact the UK Britains office that now is responsible for all new 1/32 model development.

Thanks, much appreciated for that info!!
