How long is a piece of string you may as well ask.

The value of an object is subjective, it may cost £50 in materials (ignoring labour costs to build) but be worth £500 . Conversely it may cost £200 in materials but only be worth £100 to other people.

So it's worth only what you are happy to pay.

I have been watching the price that Solents make on E Bay The one on there at the moment is making very good money.Pictures sadly can mislead, usually making things appear better than the are.Ive seen solents sell for less than £100 actually £85 .Personally id not pay more than £250.But E Bay is very variable.If two buyers get hooked in a bidding race then who knows.Price is also determined by whats fitted.Motors Shafts Props,brass or plastic escs Etc. ood luck when you sell.

Daveorgan,

I refer you to rule #3 in the Sales Board Rules -

3. Ebay listings are not to be duplicated here without prior consent of a moderator.

Do you have that consent??

So you can link to other peoples' listing but not your own?

And with a roar of thunder the heavens opened and the lightning came down.  And they could see that the Gods of Mods were not pleased and showed their displeasure.  

Actually I have never got this either.  You can put a link to every other sale on ebay but your own listing is 'sort of he who shall not be named'?  So presumably if another mayhem person sees it and puts a link on it 'under seen a bargain' its okay because your promoting a non mayhemmer or a mayhemmer that isnt yourself?  So basically I can list a model on ebay and it can be promoted on here as long as some other mayhemmer other than me promotes it.  Run that past me again as I dont get it.  If ebay self promotion is banned then surely all promotion of ebay goods should be banned surely?

If rule 3 actually is as written:

3. Ebay listings are not to be duplicated here without prior consent of a moderator.

then why is there a long running thread seen a bargain on ebay?  Do we have to have consent from a moderator before contributing to that thread?

[daveorgan]

funtimefrankie & mikearace ...sometimes in life we as individuals tend to think that Laws are 

But Laws are Laws ....& without Laws we would end up with....yes you guessed it MAYHEM 

I tend to think that the WEB site creator & owner .....'Martin' either consulted the Aztecs of the 'Wensmensister' system....or spent years in GOAL    ...studying the same pieces of legislation 

But Laws are Laws .... they are for the good of the community = we members .......  .....thank you Martin  ........Derek

As this had already been dealt with by Martin, was there any need for any further Moderation ?.
