The Independent Subbuteo Forum (est. 2002)

Season's greetings to one & all !!

Dave

as Pete Upton says they MIGHT be available up to 359, but they're just never seen. Despite ebay's crap introduction of 'private' feedback years back, it IS still possible to track a good few items if you look hard enough....like this guy's recent purchase of an empty Hungary box which then re-appear...

he's come up many times before on this forum.....been selling 'rare' refs for years, often multiples of the same ref?...hmmmmm Keeps 'finding' these high rare refs? :roll: Paint often doesn't look right for the ref; teams in wrong style boxes etc etc??? Been said on here many times...people will bid...

pics wrong way up! lol

thought 309 Iran was the highest seen? Surely everything by now was LW?

I'm wary of sellers who sell/have sold almost exclusively all high refs

yeh that really is lovely

and yes I DID have to google Malines....Mechelen it seems?

great effort! Paint the vertical beams orange and that'll top it off!

Dave

great work takis!!

I especially like the tv gantry

Dave

welcome Spurshound & therecklessone..,,good to have you on board

Dave

yeh its annoying....I send them a gentle polite reminder which usually works

Dave

surely the Airfix Guards Band?

hmm link expired...I'm wondering if its mebbes The Young Ones episode where they go on University Challenge. My fav bit...Vivian flicking the v's to the railway station buffet lady, as he shoves a whole cake in his gob

welcome! echoing Paul's comments, I too put away so-called 'childish' things when work/kids etc took over life....time moves on, kids move out, money situation improves...things long-forgotten in cupboards are re-found & dusted off, and hey presto childhood resumes :clap: :clap: Tons of reading ...

when did Subbuteo start cello-sealing the box contents...or was it done by the retailers themselves? I dont' remember buying any teams like this back in the day (late 70's)

Dave

ok no-one else has asked the obvious question....why Arbroath? Do you like kippers Massimo?
