The auction listed here is one that I bought to end my Tropicana flat car needs / wants... This seller has had some really nice Tyco listed for the last few weeks listing many of the same items over...
Paid a little too much for this one but have narrowed my wants list down to 6 trailers now...

Yeah, $36.05 is pretty insane. The Tropican flat she had on last week sold for $41+ + shipping...

Semi off topic - Looking at "Snow Queen's" listings I see stuff with Two Guys stickers on them.
Two Guys (originally Two Guys from Harrison) was a chain of giant discount stores in NJ. They went out of business in 1982. It always amazes me that I still see stuff at train shows in NJ that has Two Guys price stickers on it, 30 years later!! I guess people bought out their stock when they closed and held on to it.
I wasn't into trains much back then, but we did shop Two Guys for groceries and other household stuff. Stuff like college and the Army tended to occupy my time, but, based on what's still out there, it looks like Two Guys carried a lot of train stuff

Two Guys was great right after Christmass they always put the trains on sale. For a young person with little money I would beg plee and promise my farther anything he wanted just to get me there the day the sale started.
I sure do wish I still had half the cars that I got from them.
