The "Incredible prices" topic

I'm wondering where all the collectors are, that buy these models. Why aren't they here on the forum with us?!

Good question

They are probably collectors who are especially interested in completing a special range, brand or aera ?
I always imagine some old man sitting with his beautyfully displayed collection in the basement of his huge house by a Swiss mountain lake

That are more older collectors like my local friends. I know it from a seller for that vintage stuff and he said too that more the human figurines are interesting for that vintage stuff collectors. That animals are more interesting for dioramas.

EEEEEK !!!

Yes. During 2008 and 2009 there was a massive case of faikng of expensive and rare Lineol Figures.... This is one of those fakes. I am sure. I have an original one that appears to be similar but...[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

WOW !!! You need to be an expert to tell

Hello again Susanne,

I have probably more than 500 Lineol figures of all generations... It is my 'Lieblingsfirma'. Ich habe sogar Deutsch gelernt, um diese Figuren zu sammeln.

Best regards.

I am really impressed. Because of your big collection and that you have learned the German language only for your hobby. Surely you also know the "Figuren Magazin" ?

Mehr als 500 Lineol Figuren ? Ich weiß nicht, was ich mich jetzt mehr beeindruckt:
Die große Sammlung oder daß Du nur für Dein Hobby die deutsche Sprache gelernt hast.

Dein Deutsch ist wirklich sehr gut, das habe ich schon bemerkt.

Umso mehr freue ich mich, daß wir hier auf STS nun einen weiteren begeisterten Sammler mit großem Fachwissen haben.

Sammelst Du nur Tierfiguren oder auch menschliche Figuren ?

Sicherlich kennst Du auch das "Figuren Magazin" und vielleicht auch den jährlichen Sammlertreff in Bad Nauheim ? Hier treffen sich für zwei Tage die Sammler aus der ganzen Welt.

Holy cow! You could buy a large and very beautiful real trilobite fossil for that price!

Tim is back

Ohhh1 That is a beautyful model ....and a VER beautyful price

Great to see you here, Tim

Oh wow, that sure is an expensive model, compared to those animal replica ads above the page.

I will put this here because of the high price, it is very interesting though.
Durso composition tropical fish pair

Lovely model, but the price ....

132$ for this old and very very rare Durso seems not so incredible. It's the first time I see one and it is in mint condition. Let see if someone will buy it.

Those past days there was an auction at Breyerfest where some Breyer models were auctioned. An Alborozo mould painted as a bay sabino was sold for 22.000 USD.
