Does anyone recall what the original prices were, on release, of the two Nile River steamboats that Trophy issued. There are both large and smaller versions.
There are one of each available on eBay in August 2016 with the large version listed at $3,999.99 The Victoria (18 figures) and the smaller one lists st $2,199.99 (15 figures). Both are well beyond my budget, but they are nice to look at nevertheless. The seller, an outfit called Champs and Bums, also has a two elephant artillery team for India going for $1,199.99 which is also in Never Never Land as far as I'm concerned. Do these prices seem grossly inflated? I notice that this seller is always priced higher than anyone else especially when compared to recent auction results such as the Old Toy Soldier auction.
