Re: Show us your F1 Memorabilia / F1 related items you've bought

Yeah - I was surprised to see it at some lowly figure when I checked in on it this morning.

I made the 5 bids from £25-£80. I think it is ultimately worth a lot more but it just came along at the wrong time for me to bid any higher. Plus there is the "What do you do with it?" factor, and shipping was going to be an additional £50 as well.

Congrats to whomever landed it as even after my bids it was still a bargain I think.

A few more models I picked up today, just the one picture as I am sure they are owned by others as well. The yellow one is a double up, but its nice to have a spare:



If anyone wants more pictures of any of them in particular then just let me know

Yes - this one Sami:

...but it had no provenance to go with it. I chatted up the seller and he couldn't even be sure what car it came from.

Yes I concur all he could tell me was it was given to him from a guy who worked for GTC Motorsport so I assume it was from one of the Gulf Cars, I did put a bid in but without any evidence was not going to go anywhere beyond half the maket price of a new one.
On a different not our friend Hurst has some very nice pin badges on EvilBay at the moment.

Yes - evilbay indeed. The current exchange rate isn't helping either.

Thought this was neat so I grabbed it - it's a pin that measures 20mm x 35mm.



Anyone else have one?
