Just popped on the bay to see how much Adam had to pay for that Bayliss 2000 & guess what's on there now!!!

Bayliss 2000
Bostrom 2000
Corser 1999!!!

Let battle commence!!

[adam]

you must be kidding, my wife has that look of, you dare.
The corser will go for crazy money, its already on £450 with is it 6 days to go. Would like the bostrom though.

[baylissboy]

The only one i need to complete my collection of 996's is the Corser but it's looks like that's going to go silly!!

If i wasn't going to Mugello at the end of the month i would be in a better position to go crazy!!

too much money for a model boys, well thats what i keep telling the missus but if i could find a way to buy it i would

do you reckon that these models are at their peak value now and will start dropping or will they just keep going up and up in price

[adam]

deej, my worry would be that minichamps re release these models which would be a disaster. i like to collect them because they are the nuts, fantastic looking, superbly made and also a small investment for my children. Well i hope an investment. So spending about £400-500 worries mr know. if minichamps confirmed they wouldnt re release them then i would pay big to get them.
They will always go up in value, some years a big jump but others not so much. swings and roundabouts.

[deej]

yeah i must admit tis a concern especially as there only now releasing the 1:6 corser 99 model.

why wait until this year to do it when it was 6 years ago he rode the bike

i guess its to get us to buy them from minichamps and stop us buying them on ebay,puts the cahs back into their pockets

i'd bet on a 2000 1:6 bayliss and bostrom within the next 6 moths too

I'm certainly no prepared to pay that much money for a model. They re-released the 1999 Foggy didn't they, so there's no reason why they won't do it again with other models. If Corser wins WSB this year, that might tempt them to do another run.

[adam]

I will go for the Bostrom,Bayliss,corser if I ever see them for not too silly money, i live in hope.

You've got no chance mate

[adam]

there could be an old granny somewhere who takes pity on me and gives me her old mans collection. what do you reckon???
