Hello Everyone,
Thank you for taking the time to read my posting. I love getting new pieces to my set ups. But I often find myself wondering a lot on whether I'm getting a good deal, a bad deal, or a great deal on the piece or piece I am buying. Would anyone be able to point me in a direction that would help narrow down some of the buying troubles I am facing when I try to determine if what I'm about to buy is worth the price.
Best Regards,
The Andre XLI

Their value changes constatly.
At best you can find out what are common and what are not....

Hey Gareth,
Thank you for your quick response. Could you further assist me in finding out some way of finding out in which production numbers some cars were made. I imagine the extra rare cars e.g. super heroes, or The Simpsons would be less common than product cars like Hershey's and Starkist Tuna. Please keep you help coming.
Thank you again,

Hey Gareth,
I hear a lot of people toss the word hero around. But I rarely get their meaning. You, Gareth have truly shown me what the word hero means.
Hip-hip-hooray! Hip-hip-hooray! Hip-hip-hooray!
Thanks again,

Hey:
Hero would be people like Terry Fox, or pick any serviceman/woman coming back from a tour in Afghanistan.

I always feel if I got the train item for the amount that I bid, or less, I got a good deal!
