Title: [WTB] Lionel Trains - Post war to 1960-70
Post by: shakaru on December 11, 2011, 05:18:49 PM
I am currently posting this on behalf of someone else who is looking to purchase model Lionel trains from the post wwii era up to the 70s. If you have any laying around the attic or the likes, let me know. Paying btc and paypal.

...watching.

I think this is great. Bitcoin is great for the collectors and antiquities industry, especially when the value of something is not clear. Using Bitcoin takes the fees out of the barter and sale and both parties get what they want. The seller gets his money instantly and faster and the buyer pays a cheaper price and can do large amounts of money without worrying about fees and such.

Thanks for doing this!!

No problem and exactly why I am doing this, besides the profit and such. Thank for the free bump :)

How can you know what time period they are from?  I have a set of mismatched trains, no idea if they're Lionel or what year though.

Lionel is still around, they have been so from before WWII. They are for O gauge and the period range I am looking for is 1940-1970. If they train has a car number on it, let me know it and I can look them up. Photos help.
