This particular model was sold on ebay by George's Good Stuff in November 2007 for £205 in the following condition:
This beautiful and very hard to find late-1960s Corgi agricultural gift set is in stunning very near mint condition - both models are pretty close to perfect, with just the lightest traces of edge wear on the rear trailer... the only real fault is that the shorter of the two rubber conveyor belts on the trailer has split, but could probably be repaired with more careful hands than mine.

Both models come in the original complete and scarce inner and outer picture card box - the inner tray has the original packing piece inside the card base which has protected the wheel slots from any real wear, and is very crisp and bright, with the foldout instruction tabs for the trailer both intact, while the outer is showing some overall age wear, but everything is all crisp and 100 per cent complete - very nice indeed!
