smithy Posted April 2, 2023 Share Posted April 2, 2023 I had a look at all them Britains models and most of the boxes was in good condition and so was models inside ,plenty of customers was buying from him ,yes he might have been £10 per model dearer than other traders on the day but if you are looking at a certain model to complete/add to you collection then you wont the best there is and you pay for quality Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0025 Posted April 2, 2023 Share Posted April 2, 2023 Gave this year a miss, trying to save some money towards a new motor and my dad wasn't too fused, I like dealing with the euro lads, always used to buy the exotic rarities at not too daft money!

Very good run show it looked to be . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phil phoenix Posted April 3, 2023 Share Posted April 3, 2023 I gave this one a miss too, spent quite a bit on new models since xmas and recent purchases of the Vaddy drill, NH baler & new Valtra Q & MF 7495 leaves nothing else I want presently.

mielly Posted April 4, 2023 Share Posted April 4, 2023 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 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NIGEL FORD Posted April 27, 2023 Share Posted April 27, 2023 So sorry to hear that Nige. My parents farming friends lost 2 of their three sons in tragic accidents at different times, the eldest left a wife and young daughter, the youngest with his other brother who was driving and another drunk local farmer ran into them, how one lives with something like that ,I don't know. One of them was born the same day as me, that's how they met - in the maternity ward. Sussex tractors former owner lost his daughter suddenly to meningitis in her twenties (I think). Best wishes, Nige. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
