Crazy ebay - again..!!

OMG - I've got one of these kits in my collection, and I can't beleive I've just seen this one going for so much -

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...977348109&rd=1

I paid $18 for mine, which is around £7 + shipping from the states = £15..!!

Totally nuts, might put it back in ebay and see what I get for mine..!! Erm.. No I won't as the kit looks superb..!!

The kit for sale there has a Scale Motorsports super detail kit for the CLK-GTR included (although not in the picture) which is hard to find and very expensive. If you just have the standard kit that explains the price difference.

Re: Crazy ebay - again..!!

Those scale motorsport sets are very hard to get now and are simply superb. I have seen several sell for well over $100, one time when coupled with a clear view model I recall a $150+ price tag.

Scale Motorsports super detail kit worth a good 50$ alone, so it's not "that much"

the kit is still findable.

btw modelexpress had this kit and detail kit few weeks ago (sadly sold)

Sorry about that, I wasn't the person who bought the Porsche 911 GT1 version though, I went back to get that about a week later and it was gone.

I thought my deal tonight on eBay was pretty good, I won the following three NIB kits on eBay:

Union 1/20 BMW 3.5CSL Semi Works car (Gusser beer?)
Hasegawa 944 Turbo Racing
Hasegawa XJR-8LM Silk Cut

Less than $40.00 shipped!!

They are no longer available I am afraid. Last time I spoke to the owner of SMS at a show I asked if he would be reproducing them and he did not feel there would be a big enough market for them, he's probably right too.

So a market of just me isn'y enough!?
I guess maybe if the kit is re-released or something maybe they'll re-issue the detail set. Here's hoping..
