Take a look at this sellers "estate sale" finds.

http://shop.ebay.com/merchant/whippetsforever

Some resin, some Aurora, some tyco S, some RRR w/ JL, some MM......
Odd that someone would dump this as a lot with not a common nut in the whole bunch? Odd, that.

Thoughts?

Anything is possible.. Could be collector who is thinning out his collection and using the estate sale line to make a story behind the cars. I look at my little collection and it borders on ecclectic too. A bunch of this with a little bit of everything else thrown in. I just hope when I keel over the TM hangs on to my collection for the kid. (Who will probably dump them for star wars junk anyway!! LOL)

Thought so as well Jim.

There appears to be a Tyco and Resin continuity there and as Ujoe stated...eclectic is cool too!

Joez is just a suspicious hippietree hugger! :p

I bidded on a few... they look nice and I like Tyco S

as for being ecclectic... I think the Ulimate HO collection should have cars from every maker there ever was
that's what I'm shooting for

I've bought large collections and get rid of doubles, triples and Tycos... Maybe that is what this guy is doing...
