I just went to ebay and hit it big.
All tamiya kits
M26 Recovery Vehicle, MarderII, 251 Halftrack, Quad Tractor w/ 25 pounder + PE and shells, 3.7cm Pak, 1/48 Messeschmitt 109 E-4/7 trop, 20mm Flak Vierling and 8 sets of figures and assecories for $115. I guess I know what I am doing when not looking for a new job.
“…when not looking for a new job”…??
WOW!..?
I think if you’d bought without that qualifying statement, I’d say “good score!”–but I just hope you’re not selling them for income in three months!
Well, I would say you got a fair deal. Most of these kits are older releases and you might be better served paying retail with another maker offering modern molds. These are available at reduced prices around the community. If you are comparing to MSRP I suppose you could get enthused but…Some of these older tamiya kits have accuracy issues do to the available technology when they were developed.
They will all build great and I’m sure you will enjoy them.

If the M26 is the version with the trailer, I think it originally retailed for something close to that total price you paid. Nice kit, I’ve built the tractor version and have the trailer version in the stash. The rest of the kits you have are older kits that have been surpassed by newer releases. Have fun with them.
I know that some of these kits are from older molds and some will go right back on Ebay since I already have the kit or don’t care for them like figures. I can’t do figures for nothing even if my life depended on it. So I am sure I will get some of the money back I spent. And what doesn’t sell on ebay I either put in our contest raffle or sell at our contest in April.
