The Independent Subbuteo Forum (est. 2002)

Why stop at 387? They went up to 830 and beyond.

Condition is everything when collecting and whilst the trays look immaculate the actual chest looks very damaged. That is bound to have an effect on the value. Can't say that I've ever seen one for sale on EBay, though I haven't specifically been looking for this item.

Wishing everyone a merry Christmas

You KNOW you are going to buy it Mark , it's just a matter of when.
