I was pretty happy when I won this auction just now, but now I have that feeling that I might have overshot the value. The lot was $41.00+$9.95SH and contained the following:
Tyco Lighted Signal man shack- FACTORY SEALED Tyco Freight Unloading depot- FACTORY SEALED Tyco Unloading boxcar- C7 EXCELLENT Tyco Unloading Coal hopper- C7 EXCELLENT (NEVER USED) Tyco Piggyback Loader/Unloader(Electric with the tractor)- C7 EXCELLENT

Take pic's when it comes in and post them.
It's a matter of choice as to what's too much to pay.

I don't have a one track mind. It depends on the turn-out. "I love your catenary!" Is that a power-trip or just another pick-up line?

I always feel like if I can justify the price with myself, it was a good deal. I have overpaid a lot on ebay to get what I want with little to no remorse..

Well looks like everything came and it's great! Only problem is that on the piggyback loader, the gear shaft is slipping(the one which controls the arm and the tractor, the yellow thingy) Anyone know how to fix this? Thanks.

You did good, man.
