Bloomin heck,60 dollars for a tiny bus.I know they are more to scale than the farish ones,but good grief,I'm not sure if they are worth six times as much as the farish ones.
Theyy are even over twice as expensive as the lorries I boughtt from TINGS which are made by herpa.

Those are sixty Hong Kong dollars - whioch makes a big difference. I bought some a couple of years back and, including postage, they cost less than the Farish buses. Using Google, the current rate makes thast £4.89 (plus postage of course).
There's a mixture of cheap plastic buses and horribly expensive diecast ones on there ;)

Incidentally, the bus shown at the top of the thread actually was a British bus, a London Transport DMS sold to KMB of Hong Kong.
I think people are getting confused with Hong Kong dollars and USD! I make it just over £7 with postage!
Quite, as I mentioned above! Incidentally, the postage on these doesn't seem to diminish per item if you order more than one. Given that orders totalling under £15 won't be hit for import duties, it's best to order just one at a time as you need them!
I bought mine from Bob at N-Train. They are very nice little models and H has done tutorial thingys in N'spirations about converting to UK prototype.
well it was just an idea.... they are fairly cheap so someone on here might like to repaint one!
