    Are they all things with wings? Why don't you sell them Peter, if you're not going to do them get a bit of cash and get something BIG!

        What a great task, it must be like Christmas sorting through the kits and deciding which to keep.

          I'm no expert Peter, but some of the shows I've been to have tables full of old aircraft kits and some of them are priced really high. To be fair, there's lots of old aircraft kits in the 'junk' boxes too, but it's gotta be worth having a look on ebay perhaps to get an idea of prices.

            I put these on eBay on a five day auction starting at 29.99 and they went for a whopping £176.00 I needed a stiff one (well cup of tea ) after seeing that total

                Quite a good pay day that. Mind you, there are a couple that I think you might have done well to sell alone.... That Fairey Seafox...thats a pretty rare find. Ypu might have been surprised at how much that would have gotten you.... it only takes two or three that want it and the price might have gone very silly indeed. Seen it happen before with another rare one ( I was one of the bidders, but jumped off when it got over 150 quid!) Still you got them cheap and sold them at a good price so you won LOL
