DSCF9455.JPGDSCF9456.JPGDSCF9457.JPG I'm thoroughly confused by the 'what's it worth' assessments. Before eBay, my old playworn 2nd hand Dinky lorries from the immediately pre and post war period were selling for about £30 each at toy fairs. Now, I doubt that they'd make a tenner each. Fortunately, I'm not selling. I bought them from an Oxfam shop in Southsea for 3d each in 1961. Edit: Thinking about it, it may not have been Oxfam. It was a small toy shop on Highland Road near the cemetery. It had a glass case in the entrance which displayed a few 2nd hand toys. egg, Datsuncog, mercrocker and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a small toy shop on Highland Road near the cemetery. It had a glass case in the entrance which displayed a few 2nd hand toys.When I first started buying at Swapmeets at the end of the 1980s, Dinky and Corgi items from the 1950s to the early 1970s were all the rage. Around £90 to £100 was the norm for an example which was mint and boxed but of no particular rarity. Thankfully I could still afford restorable examples at about £3 to £4. Nowadays though, the former remain on the stallholders' tables for sometimes years, and there is little interst in the latter. I think its because the collectors of these pieces are all getting older and passing away. Rarer 1/24 Bburagos and Polistils, especially boxed, mint and boxed Superfast/kings, Majorettes, Guisval/Guiloy, Sikus, Norev and other makes from the 1970s and 1980s are now commanding strong money due to the audience moving into their 30s and 40s and being able to replace the toys of their youth or have the ones which their pocket money didn't stretch to when they were children. Whilst I love my inherited Dinky and Corgi Collection from my Dad and 2 Uncles, I sold off most of the similar items which I had bought myself about 30 years ago and lacked that sentimental value of the family heirlooms. The only cars from this batch which I kept were those which were relevant to my youth from the early 1980s such as Triumphs 1300 and 2000 and a Renault 16. egg, Datsuncog and RayMK 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Junkman Posted August 19, 2018 Share Posted August 19, 2018 Sod the model kits thread. They pushed it in the off section, hence it's doomed. So I post this here instead. It's missing the chrome sprue.Does anyone of you have a mid Seventies Revell TFD kicking about he wants to get rid of?

quicksilver Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 The problem with Dinky was illustrated at the show I went to yesterday. In the gift shop was a mint boxed Atlas reproduction Leyland Octopus for £20. Just outside was a stall with a genuine Dinky, boxed but quite chipped, and it was marked up at £70. To the casual collector, the repro would display better, is a fraction of the price and hardly anyone would know it wasn't original so why buy the real one? That guy's stall was full of Dinky toys but I didn't see him sell anything all day. I guess it's an age thing - that event was mostly full of young families who have no attraction to stuff that old. egg 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
