[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by deschane Bigboy4015, The question was: "Is there anyone out there who actually believes a 30-35 year old PFM locomotive is worth $4,000"? My opinion is, yes, there are PFM brass locos that are worth $4,000.00, to buyers willing to pay that amount. All of you thinking NO, no loco is worth that much, are wrong! To make a statement about the value of something, you need to understand the market. There are people out there whom collect brass locos and know how much they are worth amongst other collectors. For them, maybe the whole hobby is collecting brass, or maybe collecting brass is a facet of the hobby they really enjoy. I have stated the following on a few occasions on this forum and always seem to be shot down for doing so, BRASS LOCOS CAN BE AN INVESTMENT!!!! [/quote] I have BRASS engines and I know that an old model is sometimes worth 4000 $ and more. Would pay also 2150$ for a brandnew OMI UP Super-Turbine. And when someone will pay for this K-3 model 4000 $ it´s okay ! But you and I say that it isn´t worth 4000$ ! Brass can be an investment is right: CAN !!!!! But also plastic can be. And hey, I come from Germany - I know the prices for old Märklin stuff - tin plate without a real prototype but worth: 10.000 $ and more. I wi***o own a Märklin Crocodile from the 1930´s !!!
