Ever missed that set you really wanted?
« on: October 11, 2011, 08:59:06 »
ARRGHH!

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/playmobil-rescue-vehicles-/270825035581?pt=UK_Toys_Creative_Educational_RL&hash=item3f0e6e173d

For years I have been waiting for this ADAC truck to come on ebay UK, and what do I do? I never saw it! :hissyfit: :hissyfit: :hissyfit:

I thought my ebay search method was fool proof :'( :'( :'(

I so badly really really really want this truck :hissyfit:

I have too been trying to find the flat bed tow truck for myself. To bad you missed it.

I just wish that they would release it as general issue in a different colour

I can't understand it :-\

Yes....I have missed the 4444, which I could have bought at a okay price. Now it is gone and no longer on shelf here, and those on Ebay are downright expensive, counting the shipping in.

Oh, I too wanted this truck but it never ever ever is in the US  :'(

Heronimus If/when I find the specials I have bought for you, and you still want them I have about a dozen of those 4444's. I actually now know where those are, in one of the old classic volvo's in one of the buildings (just to prove I am not totally lost)  I think they were $19 when I got them, not too sure but I may have got them on sale when they were at Target.

Trying to remodel/build 4 rentals at the moment and my playmobil time is quite limited  :hissyfit: :hissyfit: :hissyfit: I just seem to find time to look in here at tea time  ::)
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:

Oh yeah.....you remind me of the special you got me and the item I offered to swap. I looked at my stock earlier in the summer thinking I might have missed some swap on PF, just cant recall. We should PM about our exchange. :wave: when you find yours

I've missed a few. The one that is dumb is when I had 2 of a special I really liked and traded one away. Then forgot I had traded it away and traded away the other one.  :wall:

Sorry to hear you lost this Damo,
It's not like you to miss out on anything, I thought you had ebay covered.  :lol:

What was it and did you ever manage to find another?
