Arrived today, # 237 Man at Well and # 249 Table Saw. Both Mint in Box with original packaging. Table Saw is absolutely immaculate.
Little late in the day for photos, may add some better ones tomorrow.
Two more 'Fleisch' consignments later this week to keep Toxx happy.

Those are nice, I do not think I have seen one of those saws in such good condition.

Been studying these tonight. The Table Saw is perfect, not a single blemish. Man at well has minor scratches around front left and rear right screw holes. Otherwise perfect.
Have decided to narrow my interest specifically to MIB Fleischmann accessories. Two more arriving soon. Of course I'll grab anything else that grabs my interest, but with the world of accessories as large as it is I have to have a focus.

I am concentrating on those things that I like, there are lots of cool things out there. I agree that Quality is more important than quantity, but a quantity of quality is even better

I remember the ebay auction that you got these off, but the listing was confusing (he had other
accessories pictured), so I didn't buy it.
I know you got these for a very good price, especially after seeing the condition they're in.  |

Two more great additions. I have to agree with the idea of trying to concentrate collecting into set areas. I see so much that I like and eBay is very, very addictive.

And if you're not careful very expensive. I have placed some high bids on certain items lately. I haven't won them, fortunately. Until we know how bad the current, (officially non existent), recession is going to be it would seem wise to conserve savings.
