My first eBay weathering project ever. Went for $12.87. Next project will be better, hopefully.

Better luck next time.
Well, do you have a link to the page? I'd like to see how your gond was presented.


BTW --One of my cars just went for $102 under an hour ago.

$12.87? Not bad, it's more than what I get...which would be nothing because I haven't even attempted weathering yet.[:I]

Aggro, I was bidding on that UP box car! Well, only about $15[:I]. I was hesitant in putting the link as I thought someone would come up with the idea that I was advertising.

I'd rather give you $12.87 for that,then $40 to Sunshine Models for a Gon without trucks and couplers like I stated in another post.

Well the next project is almost in the books, probably ready tomorrow night. I would show photos, but I'm afraid this thread would get nixed.

I say show it but like this one don't show the link and don't try and ask people to bid on it. I think you are doing good work and it would be neat to see your work as you progress. Clearly you aren't trying to sell but rather show your work. And if it does git nixed which i doubt then so be it. The thread will be deleted and we'll move on. Keep up the good work

Guys, I am going to work on it right now, I will not say when I'm listing it or anything of that nature, so if I post photos, hopefully they won't get nixed.
