ok I have been collecting for a couple years and in eBay you search something and then there's listing go through quite a few before you make the decision cause that item later could be there again but for a lower price you never know i sometimes search other names than the specific name example: i was able to get a express coach for £3.00 and in total it was £6.40 because the name was green cream coach and I was lucky I got it cheap as a single one on eBay was £9-10 most of the time so look around before you make the decision.
if we are talking in real life well there's no way to know but if you see something tomy / trackmaster that you find cool get it if its a good price look on 2nd hand places to try and find something another example of this: went to a car bootsale and got a express coach with a broken coupling good thing it was as I only paid £1 it was a bit dirty but nothing water could fix and I replaced the coupling with a spare one and called it a day.
so the moral is look around to see if you find anything and luck too
