Office of Steam Forum for Model & Toy Steam Gas & Hot Air Engines

I concur.  Have you considered the expense to have it
shipped from Germany to the US?  While the shipping
costs for small items are now reasonable I'm afraid
the shipping costs for larger items, like this engine,
are still high.

That said, it will be a good deal if the price is right.
Be prepared, though, steaming is popular in Germany so
getting a 'steal' is unlikely.  You will have competition.

Good Luck,
Wayne
