Oh, OK. Seems more like £180. Mine is in probably better condition than this - think the box is in perfect condition too. Corgi 261 James Bond...
I think I still have pretty much everything - that includes quite a few Corgi and Dinky models in their original boxes in pristine condition (I...
The placebo effect depends on belief. As is evident with hypnotised subjects, the human body is capable of astounding feats if belief is strong...
