Tell me what you think i just bought a new in box for 600.00 a jersey central fm with tmcc and 3 passenger cars that are metal not plastic its the remake of the 1950s fm unit. Do you think it was worth it?
Do you have the stock number of the engine and passenger cars? Just to get a relative value according to Greenberg's price guide.
Before you buy something(regardless of the brand name), you must ask yourself; "Is it really worth the money I will be spending for something? & How badly do I want this item?" I can't tell you that you got a good buy or not, that is something you need to decide.
A while back, about a year ago I bought a set of Amtrak passenger cars, 21 inch cars, made by Atlas at a train show for $75.00. I sold the Atlas passenger cars for $80.00 a year later. OK, so I made a $5.00 profit but it was something that I wanted to buy at the time, however the passenger cars proved to be too large for my layout after a few months of running them with my diesel engines.

I agree need numbers set number ect. You may have paid on the high side but sounds like a nice set. Again the numbers tell the story.

You must have thought it was a good buy at the time, therefore it was a good buy.
I believe its what you think its worth which must be at least $600.
I have no interest in the JC so I wouldn't pay anywhere near that but on the other hand someone who is a JC fan probably would think what a great deal you got.
