GILBERT AMERICAN FLYER HO 30325 ALCO FREIGHT SET-1957 ORIGINAL BOXES!

Description: *****THIS ITEM SHIPS TO ALL COUNTRIES SERVED BY THE EBAY INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING PROGRAM!***** Greetings and best wishes from Mr.Allied and welcome to my sale! Please have confidence in my 100% honest descriptions and please read the following carefully: This is an Original, American Flyer, "HO" Scale, No. 30325 Alco Freight Train Set, Produced by The Master Craftsmen of The A.C. Gilbert Company of New Haven, Connecticut, Circa 1957. This set is not perfect--but it is truly exceptional and the best one I was ever able to purchase over the many decades I have been collecting. The diesel loco has a diecast metal chassis with a plastic body. I bench tested the loco and it runs, but sluggishly and is in need of a good cleaning & lubrication before it will be able to run nicely, as it has been sitting unused for over 50 years now. Both lights work. The body shell is virtually perfect, showing absolutely no signs of heat damage. One coupler is slightly broken, please see photos. The very difficult to find No. C 4B183 cardboard cover for the locomotive is included. The cars are all in exceptionally nice condition, with nothing broken. I would call them all EX+ to Like New. I have not tested the light in the caboose. I have not inspected the track, so it is what it is, but it looks exceptionally nice. The original boxes are as shown. The loco box has a beautiful plastic window, but is showing a bit more wear that the others and is missing one of the fold-in coupler protectors. It has two cardboard inserts below the "floor" of the box, one at each end. I have only ever seen these once before, as they are almost always missing. All of the separate boxes are nice & clean with all flaps & no tape repairs. The original instruction booklet is included as well as the virtually impossible to find original M-3816 "Advisement" slip regarding the use of the long Alco loco through switch tracks. The set box is showing some wear & tear, but is still very nice, please see photos. Anyway, these old eyes don't see like they used to, so I ask that you take the time to "ZOOM IN" and look the photos over very closely, to determine for yourself just what we have here. PLEASE NOTE THAT THE PHOTOS ARE AN INTEGRAL and a VERY IMPORTANT PART OF THIS LISTING. You NEED to "ZOOM IN" and STUDY the photos very carefully. What you see is what you get. I am selling this Gilbert HO Train Set "as-is, as-found." Please look the photos over VERY carefully and ask any questions you may have, BEFORE you make your purchase. BUYER PAYS $30.00 FOR EXPERT PACKING AND FLAT RATE SHIPPING IN THE LOWER 48 UNITED STATES! *****Please ask about shipments to Alaska & Hawaii***** IMPORTANT! THIS IS HOW I SELL ON EBAY--PLEASE READ:1. Please note that when I offer free or "Flat Rate" shipping, the choice of carriers is MINE, regardless of what is noted in a particular listing. Your purchase will be PACKED WITH CARE, by someone who has been packing and shipping delicate items for over 50 years. And, your shipment will be FULLY INSURED, AT NO EXTRA COST TO YOU! All shipments valued at $200.00 and over will require a signature when delivered.2. I've been around for a while--a LONG while--and I have dived into my last dumpster looking for shipping cartons! So, I purchase brand new, 200# test, shipping cartons and I use anti-static, 100% BIODEGRADABLE, environmentally friendly, loose fill packing material--MOST OF THE TIME. I say "most of the time," because I will, on some occasions, ship in previously used cartons and I may reuse other types of packing materials, which best suit the item(s) being shipped. I sometimes use USPS Priority Mail shipping cartons as well. 3. I ship to all countries served by the eBay International Shipping Program. I will NOT ship internationally on my own, sorry.4. If you are buying for resale and have a valid resale permit, YOU need to contact eBay. Here is what eBay says: "eBay's Buyer Exemption Program for Sales Tax: If you are a tax exempt buyer, we have a buyer exempt system that allows you to submit sales tax exemption certificates to eBay and make purchases without paying sales tax." Please understand that sellers cannot help you with this, YOU must contact eBay to set this up.5. If you have a problem with something you buy from me, PLEASE contact me at once, so we can try and resolve the matter. It is my goal to have all my buyers be TOTALLY SATISFIED and HAPPY with their purchases. I want to EARN positive feedback from you, along with 5 Star Customer Service. THANK YOU FOR CONSIDERING THIS MR.ALLIED SALE!
