the other green Posted June 7, 2005 Share Posted June 7, 2005 I understand what you're saying FP, but what makes people want a model that is badly made? I could go into my basement and make a mold and sand cast a really rough tractor but I doubt anyone would want it just because it's the only one I made. I understand that rarety will drive the price up, I just find it a little puzzling that quality doesn't factor in too. I guess If the buyer looks at it like a toy rather than a model then that will change the picture a bit. If someone is collecting old toys, then the accuracy of the piece is not as important. Thanks for helping me think this through FP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JC Posted June 7, 2005 Share Posted June 7, 2005 I think its all about having "that rare item" to be truthfull TOG, people will pay silly money for ugly things, look at the mona-lisa, she's one pig ugly bird? :o but many art collectors would give their right arm to own it.?

THEBRITFARMER Posted June 22, 2005 Author Share Posted June 22, 2005 Sellers name is wonky ain't that your girls pet name for you Q? "HMMM let me see ?49.99 + ?10.00 for p&p wow a bargain " I see the seller has finally reduced his rates and got rid of the "buy it now" button. His postage still leaves a lot to be desired.
