I was searching for Bachmann Jinties after reading the recent @Bigmac post and came across my old Shredded Wheat Jinty that I built in the 1990's on eBay. This was based on the Andy Calvert conversion in the NGS Journal, and did well for it's time. It looks very dated now, and Antique Toys must have had it for sale for at least ten years. I'm sure it was over £100 last time I saw it, so it's now a bargain at £74.50....

Oh. Maybe not. My old CJM Class 73 is still on for £175 and my old TPM 31 for £150. Bonkers....

Blimey, I am amazed he is still going!

His erm, "creative" descriptions and prices used to be the source of much comment/laughter back in the day, I must take a look for nostalgia's sake (and out of morbid curiosity  :D ).

i think ARK collectables is a strong contender for the title, for example:
