At the Wimborne FRS rally, there were two identical
models on adjacent stands in the flea market. One was priced
at £15 and the other at £50 or £60 (I did comment on the
price contemporaneously, but now I've forgotten it because it
wasn't the one that I went for)

I suspect that with the CBisation of Ham Radio, especially here
in Britland with the M3/CB Fools' Licence, that more and more
of these will come on to the second hand market when increasing
numbers of CBers-Masquerading-As-Radio-Hams have no
idea what to do with them, what with their buy-in-a-box complete
stations with auto antennae tuners enclosed.

Rollercoasters are hard to come by these days, aren't they, Reg? I
haven't seen one in 25 years or so now. :-(
Paul, From the above it is clear that you don't visit junk sales and flea
markets all that often ,if ever.
Roller coasters can be found ,be it at gradually increasing prices.
An amateur radio flea market 'pilgrimage' to continental Europe would
,no doubt, provide a good harvest.
In the UK , Birkett -Lincoln has them from time to time.
