There is a Panzer IV (S1) on E-bay for $302.00

. I didn't think I would see these things even come close to fetching that kind of price!

I took a look at the bidders on this auction and there are only 2 parties bidding it up.

it's always fetched pretty big money but that's incredible. I don't know why you wouldn't just buy one of the r/c ones, which are essentially the same and save $260+.

Seems like a pattern with much of the slightly older 1/18 items these days; planes and armour alike. Big bucks.

This happened a few years ago too with the early XD items and then the bottom fell out for a while and you couldn't get 1/4 what they had been selling for. Seems like it's heated up again.

I bid on it until it just got crazy.

Those of us that have huge stashes of these things might have to consider letting a few go. Being mainly an armor guy, I have a ton of the Panzer IVs in every flavor. I can't really tell you why I need any more. I guess you would have to classify me as someone who hordes things.

I think the auction closed.

I tried to look up completed auctions and noticed that there isn't a link for it anymore. Did EBAY move the link or did they remove it. Does anyone know?

Totally not worth $300+, but then nice to know that's what people would pay for mine

I wonder how good of shape the tank is actually in? The S1 Panzer IVs were notorious for having broken parts. When I picked mine up at Hobbytown, I only found one decent version out of the four they had for sale. I'd hate to be the bidder who just forked over a bunch of cash only to have the tank arrive with a broken gun barrel

3 Panther tanks on E-bay, each one is hovering around the $200.00 mark.
