Trackmaster bumblebee James.. - ripley802 - 07-18-2015

Have you guys seen this one? Isn't this a bit excessive for a price? I know being an auction it can go either way. I was watching this item but it is way out of my range now.

http://m.ebay.com/itm/Busy-as-a-BEE-JAMES-Trackmaster-Motorized-train-engine-New-in-Box-/261964907748?nav=WATCHING_ACTIVE

I did not realize he was that rare..

I know I seldom see this new in its box.

At first I thought it was a "Newbie War" but I see its just one newbie and a middling bidder. Both are making a mistake in trying to out bid each other like if they are at a auction house. Is this one worth it, maybe the last second bids will show us its worth if any experience bidders get in. The only person that wins in these "Pot Committed" type bidding is the Seller which is good for him. As a Seller I have benefited quite well with the "Newbie Wars" with skyrocketing prices that I was embarrassed for the bidders for. A general rule...as a Seller, you love the "Newbie Wars" as a buyer, you hate them because by the time the end of the auction comes around the newbies with their tons of minimum bids have driven the price way over its worth.

Here is a Japan Seller that has 3 http://www.ebay.com/itm/TAKARA-TOMY-PLA-RALL-Thomas-the-Tank-Engine-Tomy-busy-Bee-James-TS-34-/281579599612?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item418f73b6fc Well see how close the auction gets to this price.

Sometime I see a non functioning bumblebee put on auction sell for a ridiculous low price. If somebody knows how to repair those, they will be rich.

Holly cow. I had no idea it was that rare/expensive.

I haven't found a broken/parts one yet, but would like to. I will keep looking.
