I recently purchased a Lionel Legacy Berkshire and Hudson from two different members on the OGR site. Just passing along, both experiences were extremely positive, both sellers delivering exactly as described. Thank you to OGR and it’s members.

I've had almost universally positive experiences buying from the OGR sale forum. It's certainly way more positive than places like eBay, which are more of a crap shoot.
For the most part, even though most of us have never met we still consider each other as friends. That's what makes the forum a valuable resource.
Agreed. I’m 2 for 2 with great experiences both times. I’ve been patiently watching auction sites for some diesels I want, so may try the “want to buy” forum here soon.
I have bought and sold. Decent every time.
Bought a Lionel Legacy UP Aux Tender from a member and had no issues.
I too have purchased via the OGR forum and I had very pleasant experience. I also made a new friend from one of my purchases!

I've bought a few things form OGR Forum, probably at least a half dozen. All positive experiences. I have never tried Ebay, just reading some of the descriptions offered in which the seller is either totally clueless or a baldfaced lier has made decide to never try it.
I always look here before eBay. Long-time members and hobbyists are much more likely to be honest about condition and fair in dealing with any problems.

There are two forums:
