Members' Sales

[The Sales Team]

Brian and Graeme (and maybe others) -

There was a post on the Bachmann Skarloey thread on this forum on 17th December:

"Don't quote me, but I think members may be able to acquire one through Members' Sales in the not too distant future, so don't rush out and buy one from lesser suppliers just yet!"

- admittedly a bit vague, but a heads-up nonetheless!  Price not yet available.

[Graeme Dunbar]

Thanks. I read "those who are still waiting for their Skarloey" as being addressed to people who had bought one.

The Society Skarloeys were due to arrive at Wimborne today, although sadly they didn't make it before the end of the packing session.

Price to members will be

A member who I do not personally know from his forum pseudonym posted on NGRM-Online at 4.18 today that (sic): "as at 4pm today, of the 36 that has arrived from the USA today to 009 Sales, 24 have already been sold, so if you are thinking about a purchase, don't think for too long"

Skarloey update:  All 36 had been spoken for by 9pm yesterday! An order has been placed for a further 36 but it's not known if they will actually be available. Watch this space... (Looks like a busy packing day next Thursday!)

The bad news: when the team finished last Thursday morning there was just one lonely 'Skarloey' left on the bench - the last of the second batch.

The good news: an order has been placed for 100 'Rheneases', which are due for release in May. More news when we have some (either news or locos!)

May? Very interesting.

[Doug Dickson]

Hullo Sales Team!

Is the loco below that referred to in the Parkside Dundas catalogue? If so is it available through your good offices?

I'm thinking of building one of their brass diesels [well we could all do with a laugh, couldn't we?]

Otty: We only said 'May' or, possibly, maybe... Release dates are something of a moveable feast, so we shall all have to wait and see!

Chubber: Not sure if there are any Plymough diesels left in stock, but an e-mail to Brian at    members-sales@009society.com will confirm or otherwise.

I understand nothing is set in stone hence why I said "May? Very interestingly" & no more  ;)

How does a member get onto the sales team's email distribution?

Also My Dad sent me a sales dept mass email from Feb (before Shepton) with a link to a downloadable sales list and I would like to look at an updated list if such a document still exists or has been updated since.

Thanks

                               CHANGES TO THE SOCIETY SALES SERVICE

Brian Guilmant formally announced the future shape of the Society Sales operation yesterday at the 009 Society AGM, where he also relinquished his post as Sales Officer after over 40 years in the job.

In future, the load will be shared among three different operations:

- a Recycling Service: this will take in stock (including from deceased members) and sort and value it. This will continue to be run by the Wimborne team under Brian G. From here items will be passed on to

- the Sales operation: This new venture will be based in Chandlers Ford (in Hampshire) and run by Lee Bryant, Alan Hamer and David Ward. All orders will in future be directed here for packing and dispatch. Please note that although goods will continue to be dealt with (at least) weekly packing day will no longer be necessarily on a Thursday.

- the sale of new items
