A few data points:
I bought a like-new LGB Forney locomotive from Tom.
It cost about 20% more than those available on eBay, even after discount.
Bought from Tom anyway because he seemed like a solid guy who stands behind the sale, and he is.
After the sale, Tom sent me some free things (better electrical connectors and magnets to make train whistle) to facilitate a better overall experience for my children.
Highly Recommended.
