Please have confidence in my 100% honest descriptions and please read the following carefully: This is a Group of TEN, Original, "HO" Scale, Freight Cars, Produced by The Master Craftsmen of The A.C. Gilbert Company of New Haven, Connecticut, Circa Late 1950's or so. Some of these cars are reasonably difficult to find in nice condition, the NP Reefer & the Seaboard Box car come to mind. All of these cars are in exceptionally nice, all original condition. There are some issues, as follows: 1. The NP Refrigerator car box has blank end flaps.2. There is a factory casting flaw on the deck of one of the depressed center flat cars.3. The lumber car has three pieces of "lumber," and I believe it was supposed to have six. It has six stakes and should have 10. The envelope that holds stakes & brakewheel is a rough.5. The stickers on the 3-digit B&O Box car are a bit discolored, but still very acceptable.6. The seam on the box for the Gulf 3-Dome Tank car needs to be glued. The car itself is brand new, never run! There are no missing or broken steps, no missing doors, no chipped roof walks, no torn stickers, nothing cracked, chipped, scratched or broken. Other than noted above, I do not believe there are any other defects. Some boxes are showing wear and there are maybe two or three missing flaps in the lot. Some very slightly torn cellophane windows. Anyway, these old eyes don't see like they used to, so I ask that you take the time to "ZOOM IN" and look the photos over very closely, to determine for yourself just what we have here. PLEASE NOTE THAT THE PHOTOS ARE AN INTEGRAL and a VERY IMPORTANT PART OF THIS LISTING. You NEED to "ZOOM IN" and STUDY the photos very carefully. What you see is what you get. I am selling these TEN Gilbert HO Train Cars "as-is, as-found." Please look the photos over VERY carefully and ask any questions you may have, BEFORE you make your purchase. BUYER PAYS $15.00 FOR EXPERT PACKING AND FLAT RATE SHIPPING IN THE LOWER 48 UNITED STATES! IMPORTANT! THIS IS HOW I SELL ON EBAY--PLEASE READ:1. Please note that when I offer free or "Flat Rate" shipping, the choice of carriers is MINE, regardless of what is noted in a particular listing. Your purchase will be PACKED WITH CARE, by someone who has been packing and shipping delicate items for over 50 years. And, your shipment will be FULLY INSURED, AT NO EXTRA COST TO YOU! All shipments valued at $200.00 and over will require a signature when delivered.2. I've been around for a while--a LONG while--and I have dived into my last dumpster looking for shipping cartons! So, I purchase brand new, 200# test, shipping cartons and I use anti-static, 100% BIODEGRADABLE, environmentally friendly, loose fill packing material--MOST OF THE TIME. I say "most of the time," because I will, on some occasions, ship in previously used cartons and I may reuse other types of packing materials, which best suit the item(s) being shipped. I sometimes use USPS Priority Mail shipping cartons as well. 3. I ship to all countries served by the eBay Global Shipping Program. I will NOT ship internationally on my own, sorry.4. If you are buying for resale and have a valid resale permit, YOU need to contact eBay. Here is what eBay says: "eBay's Buyer Exemption Program for Sales Tax: If you are a tax exempt buyer, we have a buyer exempt system that allows you to submit sales tax exemption certificates to eBay and make purchases without paying sales tax." Please understand that sellers cannot help you with this, YOU must contact eBay to set this up.5. If you have a problem with something you buy from me, PLEASE contact me at once, so we can try and resolve the matter. It is my goal to have all my buyers be TOTALLY SATISFIED and HAPPY with their purchases. I want to EARN positive feedback from you, along with 5 Star Customer Service.
