Thinning the herd again, trying to boil it down to mostly Tyco. The entire lot is being started at 99 cents, plus shipping, the latter is a bit dear, but so many pieces I gave up trying to count them. Sorry, I can't do any cherry picking; take one, take all. 99 cents buys the whole shebang.

My apologies, gentlemen, the auction doesn't go live until midnight tonight, I didn't realize it wouldn't open. Here are a few photos. I lost count of how much stuff is there, but it is a good thirty five pounds. Bidding starts at 99 cents for the entire pile. No reserve. Some decent Tyco in there, but I have to cut down on my duplicates. The amount of stuff I have accumulated is overwhelming, and hopefully someone else will get to enjoy this. I'd never think of just trashing it. You might be the winner for entire load for less than a dollar, except for shipping, which is pricey, even at the economy rate, about $35 alone, for that.

Some of them you may want to take back. Definitely keepers but I see what you mean about too much.

I hope not, I did hold onto a lot of stuff, but much of this comes from a hoard given to me by Tinplate Henry a few years ago. Truth be told, I've run all of this at one time or another, which was somewhat more practical when I belonged to the model train club with its 30 straight aways. I've held on to a few Tyco pieces, the rest are mostly duplicates. The Dentyne and Trident cars were a toss up, but just didn't feel like making more room for them; had to cut it off somewhere. Pieces like the Varney Aero Train you gave me define what I love about Tycomania, and I will not part with such things!

Well, the joke maybe on me. Down to the final days and no watchers and no bids. This could end up as a winner take all, a flop, or some made down to the wire bidding in the final sixty seconds. Busss, if it don't sell and you can afford the $37 shipping, let me know!
