Not worth it at all.
The only one ever worth big money is this one as it is very rare.
Seen these go for £500, if you can find one

Its worth as much as someone is willing to pay! If you have a decent collection and dont have this but want it and have no budget then its value could be anything!

A situation that concretes what I always say about the bay, what seems like a lot of money to some people may not be to others

That item had someone set automatic bids on it, so if someone bid 10 grand on it they would have still lost the auction because an automatic higher bid would go in every time, I know because it was me who put the 2.5k bid on it lol

I've just got my hands on this one for a £100 happy days and will be adding a few more rs500 touches

Too much British beef Carlos tbh I knew I wouldn't win that The way the bidding was going it was a bit suspect

Me too a bit suspect to say in the least, either someone wanted it regardless of cost or it was a case of mr mc'bumping

Prices of these models has risen over the last few years, but not that much....madness.
I used to buy these models for £20 years ago, if only I had kept them all.

Jimmy, you got that one for a fair price with those wheels added.

So what if you had put £2500 on it and won it for say £1700 or something?

Yes Jay was happy with it big time, it's a mini champs and I know their detail is not quite as good as auto art but it looks pukka with those wheels and it has a 500 front bumper on it a bit more modding and it'll be a full 500 rep a good mate of mine and a middx&surrey member is into modding these models too which is well handy and his work is the muts goolies

I suspect that too but saying that I didn't get a second chance offer which sometimes is the case if people are blagging it

I would have been gutted but saying that I would have paid for it, but I knew by the way the bidding was going I was not going to win it, it had sniper software set up on it, no matter what bid went in a higher would be automatically submitted each time

Can't have been the seller getting it bid up though, why would they get someone to bid it up to £2700??
Must have been someone put in a massive bid to win it but then shit themselves when someone on here put on stupid bids??
Ebay fucks me off sometimes, so many messers
