844john Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 What I'm struggling to understand is where all the money is coming from, whenever you watch the news it's nothing but poverty, job losses and a country hit by recession.....and then you see these massively inflated prices for models. No doubt some people have done well out of the pandemic and furlough has obviously bolstered a lot of incomes, but then tomorrow can be a completely different ball game... 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hody21 Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 It maybe going for good money but I bet the winner never pays up. Good luck to the seller though. If somebody's prepared to pay the price then who are we to criticize. Glad I've got one though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad I've got one though What amazes me is that its not even a limited edition - I paid less for my Gold Britains 8340T and there were only 102 of them made! Like you say though, its only sold when the money is in the bank! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably not as much as the Maxxum fetches. Bonkers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CX820Joe Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 There are some tools bidding on ebay though...a while back I put three Britains Loaders on, two of which were current models and they all got bidded over £30 but never received the payment, and looked at feedback and the bidder had done it before, just bidded things up with no intention of paying. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justy 46 Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 These just vary so much all the time. One was last week and the other just finished tonight. What's going on? Maybe the eagle eyed collector might spot a difference. Other than the £1 off sticker!

Barry Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 Maybe we should have a Shapeways thread?? Anyways, is this the 'Grondfrees' you were refering? grondfrees = ground cutter!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice to see good 3D printed models at a sensible price, Even the smooth fine detail price is just £ 39.36, no idea of postage price though, Regards Joe, 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smithy Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 several years ago i had 2 Howard rotavators ,both the same the lower link arms just went on to pins on the rotavator this 3d printed one has jaws for the lower link arms ,the gearbox on mine was in the middle with a round bit of tube on one side housing the drive shaft to the chain on the side that drives the rotor , this one seems to have a round shaft right across the back linking both sides , it could be a Howard but not the same as what i had . I do like this 3Dprinted one and like Catkom3 say its a good price Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smithy Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 The 1/32 diepwoeler c90 at £22-76 looks good value ,to me it looks very much like the subsoiler that Ernest Doe made specially to go behind there Triple D tractors 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stehos Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 Very interesting things they offer. But first I would like to see a finished product to establish what the actual detail is. The pictures you see are just rendered models. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
