        The bidding seems high to me, it averages out at about £40 a kit!!!o_O

            I've copied a picture, which I will be using in my defence the next time the wife grumbles about buying more 'things'.

              It's e-bay. Did you expect them to be cheap!! A dealer will buy them and sell them on so it looks like there will be a load of kits coming up again soon.

                If they are at £3300.00 and there are 800 of them that makes it just over four pounds each. They are obviously a shop stock and will almost certainly go to another supplier. At the current price they should be able to double thier money but they will probably go higher and they will take a few years to shift.

                    I have already looked £4.50 a kits does seem a bit much especially if the majority turn out to be 1/72, I might have been interested if he had broken down how many of each scale
