yeah really!! 
I saw one similar that a member had of a long defunct local model railroad club
& the middle cars would either highcenter or derail everytime it went around the corners
The middle cars seemed to lift up & they'd derail 
Yes do want this set in any condition running or not

I see he has an offer.
I've seen similar sets on ebay for way less. And for that price I would expect it to be 100% complete and with zero issues - meaning everything works on it, no scratches, etc.
And, also be plated in solid gold

I will say that the long box for the 3 cars is pretty cool. Not $1500 dollars cool however. There is another set with no box with 1 bid at $160 - much more sane.
