Hi guys i need some info of the rarity of the talk n action thomas trains
i know the trains that they made are
diesel 10
thomas
james
percy
henry
gordon
toby
i would like to know where these could be found and bought because i would love to get some of the talk n action trains
Thomas, James & Percy are relatively easy to find and are not that expensive. Diesel 10 is easy to find but commands $200+, the rest are rare and were not sold in the west so quite hard to find them.
I looked at these..they are listed as junk. Their problems are listed, and these two, along with James, seem to be the most consistently problematic of the various models...the Talk'n Action series is quite particular and finicky, and a properly and thoroughly functioning one is rare to find...unless you are up to the challenge of restoring them I don't recommend them.
However, the real value of the listing is the boxes themselves...they are rarer than the actual trains!!!
Play nice & have fun!!
when you bid on jauce, you are actually using a third party site. there are several such sites, so this means you can be competing with people on completely different sites to you.
when you win, the seller sends the item to the jauce warehouse. you will be told when your item has arrived. you have no contact with the seller at all. not even placing of feedback.
from there, you can elect to have it sent to you then or they will hold for 65 days while you buy other items. after 65 days, they start charging a storage fee.
when you order a shipment, you can pay to have everything repacked into one box [recommended].
you deposit money to your jauce account through paypal and everything gets taken from that. the item cost, the fee for winning, the shipping to the warehouse and then shipping to you. i tend to keep about 7000y in my account most of the time and that will buy a bit of stuff.
that should be fine. just a note, when you deposit, the paypal page lists everything in yen, so it would pay to work out the conversion from your dollar to yen to make sure you have enough.
good luck!!
