Last week I purchased the same H0 couche (without box) on a swap meet here in the Netherlands. It was on a table with other rolling stock. Every piece only € 4,- They are hard to find. And some traders on Ebay know this and ask insane money for it. Btw. The examples from Lima in 00 scale are much easier to find.
Congratulations on your purchase. I sometimes camouflaged scratches with a very fine brush and a watery acrylic paint solution. However, I think these crimson and cream could be difficult to find... Anyway, in real life coaches are also not always immaculate. Great addition to your collection!

Indeed, prices for rare items where there is low demand can be either very low or very high...
