    As above need to get rid of a load of Burago cars 1:18 that ive had since i was a kid.

    As i was anal and didnt play with these ones they are all boxed and in perfect condition and there is about 15 of them mainly Porsche, Ferrari, Lamoborghini and a few others.

    Do i just bin them or try and flog them?. Parents are moving house and they take up a load of space in their little bungalow so i need to get rid.

    Seems a bit of a crime do get rid of them but im not paying to ship them over to Bcn.

    There are any number of toy auction places around. Probably the best place to sell them and will get better prices than eBay. :thumbup:

    just had a browe on ebay, Varied pricing, Maybe worth a bit of research if you have a rarity may be worth a few pennies to someone.

    dearest i saw was 30 quid avg 8 quid

    I sold a load at a car boot for about 2 each. :( Seems that they arent worth much really unless they are rare/interesting or AutoART. Id give them to a charity shop if you really dont want them.

    See! My offer doesn't look too shabby now does it! [:p]

    Seriously though I'd quite like an F40, I lost mine when I moved house...

    depends on the models and age, newer stuff is gerneral a bit pap, older like the 80s and early 90s were better and prob wortha few quid but not masses

    list the ones you have, i might be interested in a few :thumbup: i have a 'showroom' in the spare room which i keep adding to without the wife noticing.

    same geos for my desk at work, I currently have 3 hot rods, a Murcielago and a Delorean on!

    are they the original 'made in Italy' models or the new fangled Chinese?
