Is this an actual set?
« on: April 24, 2011, 15:11:48 »
By actual I mean a set that has been produced by Playmobil and has a set number. 
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=150594146727&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT

It's on eBay UK and is described as 'ultra rare'.  I am not interested in buying it- it was just curiosity.
I have never heard of it before (then again I do profess to not know a lot about the framework buildings) and I thought it unusual that it came with so many figures.  :hmm: I have searched my collectors book without success and wanted to know what it was about it that has people bidding £41 with a week to go!

Now, there's a bit of 'whoo haa' with this one.

It's a custom, but I wouldn't buy it as I tried to buy it but this guy who is selling it got it dodgily of the person who was selling it originally from who I was trying to buy it off.

If that makes any sense at all! 8}

I didn't think it was an official set but I was amazed at the price it has already reached.  To me it doesn't look worth it.   :eh?:

Looks like an ASP (all spare parts). I have a signal cabin on my layout that I made the same way.

What ?

The person selling it now bought it in a questionable manner off of a person you were trying to buy if from. Whats with all the re-selling with this lot?

If you hear the sound of the bell which will tell you that Grigori has been killed, if it was your relations who have wrought my death, then no one in the family will remain alive. They will be killed by the Russian people. :prays:

To make money.

I thought, ooh, this looks good, I'll go for this (although I guessed it may go for a bit), but then the seller removed it from sale, and then a week later this other seller was selling it!

I bet the first seller may not be too pleased if it goes for more than he sold it for!

Are you going to show it us, Walt?
