Hi Guys. I have a large collection of Models of Yesteryear cars from the late 1970's up to approx 1985 that I collected in my teens. All of them are mint and boxed,some have never been out of the boxes. They are mainly vans/commercial vehicles and some are apparantly quite rare, such as Liptons Tea, Chocolate Mennier and two display boxes showing a tram and traction engine as complete models and exploded views.
Basicly, before I start trailing in internet and EBay, are they worth anything and if they are, does anyone know of a specialist who would buy these items.
As always, thanks for all yur help.

I think you may be disappointed in the valuations. I was thinking the same, and checked a few years ago. I think the Internet has killed off the market and the "rare" factor. Collectors can just find what they want with the click of a mouse these days. Good luck, and if you are pleasantly surprised, report back and I might have a rethink!

...I was looking at prices on Ebay last night. They dont really appear to be worth much at all. So now the choice is to either put them back in the loft, or sell them to some one who is going to enjoy them?
