thats bloody crazy... I've got one (or two) of those things floating around. i never fit them because australian trucks dont have them (that and the fact that they're never shown on the instructions)
If you want one, PM me and if you pay the postage it's your's.

Well let's see....The last International Logger I bid on ended up going for $213. I have seen the Transstars bring over $125 easily, the other International can brings $75-100 as well and the mack also goes for at least $65 in this condition. All in all, for $405 with the ability to make payments and the willingness of the seller to work with the winning bidder, I think it's a more than fair price. It's too bad more sellers didn't make the effort like this seller did. I was going to bid on a Dual Drive White Freightliner and the price had gotten up to $286. I e-mailed the seller and asked if he would take two payments and hold the kit until the balance was paid. He replied calling me an idiot, stupid, a "dreamer" who wasn't serious about buying the kit, and so forth. I simply thanked him for being an a-hole and moved on. Ironically, about a month later the same kit was re-listed as the original winning bidder failed to pay the $310 for the final bid on that kit. Out of principle I refused to bid on his kit after his reply. The kit ended up going for just a little over $100 the 2nd time around. I'm still looking for my Dual Drive Freightliner too....Oh well...someday. He had the nerve to talk to you that way?!?!?!?! I'm glad that other guy stuck it to him then.

I'm curious, because those kits will end up having to be practically given away if no one ever buys them.

I've been looking to buy either an AMT Gravel trailer kit or the Flatbed (not the expendable) and the prices are always going way too high in the last hour or two. I don't even bother to bid anymore until at the end of the auction, if I can help it. I just get outbid anyway. I refuse to pay an outrageous price for a kit that is not all that rare but rather hard to find. People just seem to be using ebay as a way to make a quick buck these days. That, and I have seen someone already that put bids on a friends auctions just to get the price up. This I stumbled onto at work when I needed to venture into the office where the people that don't work are located. I have a feeling that this is some of what happens with these kits too. At any rate, you would have to be desperate or crazy to pay some of those prices.

I logged on to eBay one day last week and found a flatbed for $39.95 buy it now. So I did. The way things are going that should be the price for the reissue ,so I guess I did OK. I am sure that I once paid about $55.00 for one of these.

But $40 seems to be where we're headed with the price of the re-issue.

I think they sell this stuff to the real new hobby people on eBay that do not know that they are getting ripped off big time. I did get the Bill Signs, Well it is in the mail !!!! I sent an email to worldsbestmom196# about her great prices. NO SENSE OF HUMOR HERE. She does not have the creative speech of her MORON husband.

Their reserve on the Bills signs rigs is normally set at around $300... I'm only guessing this because i've watched the bids go as high as $295 without th reserve being met

They are so asinine. I guess "greed" is a terrible sickness they do not know that they even have it.
