Stuart Triple Expansion Steam Engine

Check out eBay, as there is a three-cylinder slide valve T3DR, 12mm bore and stroke for only $719 or £529, I appreciate this is not a triple expansion, but it is a triple at a bargain price which has to be a mistake. I am sure this is the right price for the two-cylinder T2DR, and somebody has made a mistake with the prices. Get in there quick it is the bargain of the year. Good hunting. Gary.

Stuart only show an unmachined for 788.80 gbp. I saw a triple on ebay cost was 2660.00 gbp. I would think 2100 euro may be a good price. Steam engines are very costly at any rate.
Comes down to how much you want it.

Stuart Triple Expansion Steam Engine

Dear fellow modellers,

Sorry for my not so good english, but have a question.
I like very much the steam engines from stuart.
Have already the double cylinder.
My question is this one; how much may one pay for a triple expansion engine in good shape and running (secondhand of course) (in euro or in gbp).
The seller wants 2100€, is this too much? Is this the average price?
If i would buy, would like to install in a 1m70 three island steamer
Hope to hear from all you 👍
Best regards
