O Scale Buses
Posted by AntonioFP45 on Friday, November 19, 2004 2:03 PM
Just wanted to pass on the FYI.

I went to E-Bay and typed "Corgi Bus". There are 8 pages of buses for bidding!
What impressed me is the wide variety of coaches from the early 1900s thru the modern era. There are American as well as buses from other countries. There were two Greyhound Scenicruisers on one of the pages.

Many of the listed coaches show GPB, which I believe means that the seller is in England. I had a minor problem when I won a model locomotive from England earlier this year. While I could contact the seller, he couldn't contact me as my Internet Service Provider automatically blocks a number of Europeon internet service providers known for carrying and failing to block a high number of viruses.

You have to research carefully as even some of the coaches up for bidding here in the U.S are IMHO a bit overpriced. On those by the time you pay for shipping & Handling, you come out better going to the hobbyshop. Of course, for those buses that are rare, bidding may start out higher. I continued reading and did find some attractive buses that are starting out with low bids.

Hope this is good news for some of you!

Cheers!
