Instant collection right there :D That BBI F-18 is worth nearly what that buyer paid for the entire collection.

In a way, I feel sorry for the seller. He could have gotten a bit of money for several of those aircraft had they been listed individually and probably would have made more.

That is a great deal. :shock:

Seller could have gotten substantially more than that by selling individually, but perhaps he just wanted to have one quick sale. Sounds like he knows the value as well, so knows what he was doing.

Not surprising that the lot sold very quickly.

I just hope they went to a collector and won't end up in a flea market somewhere, marked up 500%.
