Kadee O Scale #811 Magne-Matic Delayed-Action Between Rails Uncoupler

Description

Before there were Kadee operating couplers, there were others.  Roundhouse, for one, made a realistic scale operating coupler.  Like Kadees, it had a simulated air hose hanging down from the coupler.  To open the knuckle, the air hose had to be lifted up.  To do it remotely, Roundhouse devised a ramp for installation between the rails.  It worked, sometimes.  Kadee took the idea and improved on it with its Magne-matic couplers which could be opened with a magnetic strip installed between the rails or under the track.  That worked more reliably, and no one has since come up with any thing to replace it that works better.  Perhaps as a consequence of that,
Kadees  became the standard in the hobby, used satisfyingly, for the most part, by most modelers in all scales.  You're likely one of them too.
Here is a Kadee #811 delayed-action uncoupler for installation between the rails on the track on your layout.  Brand new, never been used.   Contents include plastic magnetic strip and steel intensifier plate plus installation instructions and how-to-use tips.
Install an uncoupler at the beginning of a siding, on a yard lead or a hump, if your yard has one.  Every layout needs a few of these  uncouplers; most layouts need dozens.  You probably need a few more.  If there are spots on your layout where you've been habitually uncoupling by hand, that's where you need to install one of these uncouplers.  Don't risk wrecking your scenery, buildings, trees, signals, trolley lines, and more by reaching into the layout to uncouple cars.  Install uncouplers and operate more realistically.
HOW TO BEAT SNIPERS.  If you're as fed up as I am with snipers beating you out time after time at the last minute for an item you want, then "MAKE AN OFFER" IS YOUR BETTER BET.  No snipers.  No one topping your bid.  It's really your best chance for getting what you want at the price you want.  I do it all the time and I'm frequently surprised how successful I am bidding that way.  You should try it.  Frankly, I'm surprised more eBayers don't.  I've switched a lot of the items I'm selling to "BUY IT NOW" with the "MAKE AN OFFER" option and I'm dismayed at how few offers I get.  The fact that a seller offers the "Buy it Now" option should say to you that he's willing to accept  something less than his "Buy It Now" price.  How much less?  Well, probably not a great deal less, like 50 percent.  That's just unrealistic. But 10 percent is a more likely amount and sometimes it's more!  Don't be put off if the seller comes back to you with a counter offer.  That's horse tradin'.  And that's fun too. Why don't you GIVE IT A TRY.
