A lot of the prices were fair and reasonable. A few items I saw I thought were over priced for the condition but if it is a model you have been after for a while, you would pay the price to add it to the collection. Plenty of sellers and a great variety to choose from. I am more buy it when you see it otherwise it will be gone! Here are my purchases

Mainly filled gaps in the collection. One of the Valtra’s is the uncommon bronze version. I did declare online before going through customs but like Mike said, they weren’t interested! -
Great show - completely overwhelmed Saturday - seemed to be a lot more stalls than 2019! I would recommend it to anyone thinking of going just for the sheer size. roll on 2023 albeit earlier in the year and at a new location! Now to wait and see what Customs want to do in the morning…

I have been looking at declaring it online before boarding the ferry on Sunday coming back and use hmrc’s simplified rates and pay the duty with debit card https://www.gov.uk/bringing-goods-into-uk-personal-use/declaring-goods there are two categories I am considering declaring it under: antiques, collectors items and artwork or; other goods declaring €1000 goods as collectors will cost around £43 in duty declaring the same as other goods it’s about £200 I believe you can go through green channel and show the declaration to them and payment made and hope they don’t want to look at the items! but I am willing to ‘discuss’ it with them if they want to (apologies for going off topic) -

Brilliant work, i like old buildings and these look just like the real thing on my uncles old farm Sean, i hope you don’t mind me asking - what is the stuff you use to make the blocks/slabs and what are the moulds? i fancy having a go myself making a few and having a play.
