Join me and a bunch of others in Timonium Maryland on Sat & Sun, Oct 26 & 27, 2019 for a craftsman kit weekend of fun! Held in the 3.5 acre fairground Cow Palace building, the Great Scale Model Train and Railroad Collectors Show & Railroad Marketplace is going to be a great time!

 It's not very often I get mad. I have the greatest life. I'm a paralyzed quadriplegic in a wheelchair, yes. But I have it better than so many other people in this world. I may never walk again, but I'm more of a man than this fraud I'm writing about today. He got to me. I'm angry. He won, but I hope to get the last word in.


I would never, ever, misrepresent anything for financial gain. I will never rip someone off. I make mistakes, and plenty of them. This is an example of someone who could not accept a mistake I made.



I had put together a set of castings for the FSM Fine Scale Miniatures Sawmill set #170 based on a kit I had here in my collection. This kit was made in 1978. It has about 5 different stickers/writing on it with different prices, from various resales over the years. Forty years and at least 5 different owners. Things went missing. Apparently 12 castings.


I listed the first set on eBay in December, incorrectly assuming it was a "Full Set." I listed them as such. I guaranteed them as such.





As you can see above, I also show a picture of the castings included, and again list them as a "Complete Castings Set" in the eBay ad.

I just want to make a note that several of the clinics are now sold out/full, and the rest have only a few spaces (some only 1) open.  :)

It seems that the registration desk at the EXPO is always telling people "Sorry, those are full." so I thought I'd mention it.  :(

If you are one of the people who signed up for a Platinum before I marked it "Full" and I had to bounce you out I again deeply apologize. As I stated in my email to you I am very sorry and will keep up with them going forward.  :-[

Just over 5 weeks to go!

THE 2016 EXPO Danvers MA / It won't be long...
March 31, 2015, 06:48:30 AM
... and 2016 will be here. Trust me. We had 18 months to plan EXPO '15 and still we wish we had more.

At this stage of the planning we have a hotel picked out. We are "in negotiations" which means that it still could be anywhere. With a last scheduled visit to the location coming up soon, it shouldn't be long before we are able to announce the details.

No time to rest between shows!

Thank You and please try to have a nice day.
