Hi, I'm Dave
, a former retail trader and 1/10 off-road racer, now in retirement. (My mates all said I should be retired, even when I was racing).
That's friends for you! I have also been a slot-car nut since I first saw the very early ones in the mid-50's
(my first set was a Wrenn - 1/52 scale).
I started going through my loft and Ebay-ing its' contents just before last Christmas, starting with SCALEXTRIC Cars and Accesories. Cars have nearly all gone now and, since I really don't have an 'Alladin's Cave' that I go back to for more stock, when I say "when it's gone, it's gone" it really is! I later started adding Vintage TAMIYA Spares to which the same applies.
I was amazed at the demand and caught myself out by listing the bulk of my Boomerang front wishbones at a 'buy it now price' that was much too cheap. Well done, those hawk-eyed customers who decimated the stock in a couple of hours! I've learned now. If I have a few of an item and I'm not sure, I'll always auction one first to get an idea of its' value before doing a shop listing.I listed a couple of PARMA lexan shells which seemed to generate some interest, I still have one or two left so I will list them in the new year. My stock of their 'Custom Colour' Lexan Paint has nearly all gone,but I have found a box the PACTRA product, which I will random sample test before listing.
and 'Ace' 1/10 buggies, as well as the French MRX (very strong car, I used to use race at one time).
I'll start on Schumacher CAT and Cougar spares and tyres in the New Year. I also had some bits that wasn't really sure if they were worth listing, like the plastic parts only for CVA shocks and other oddments. I tried auction a few and the answer seems to be some are! Also, I have boxes of spares for PB's ' MiniMustang'
I will get a private website setup to list these eventually, but if you do want anything and can't wait, just drop me a line and I'll see what I can find.
