Anyone else see that post last night?
Was it just me or was that a wind up?
Post seems to have gone now.....
 
I saw it too. I think it was removed because it was linking to an external site (eBay).

I just thought it was odd, £10 or whatever the cost was (with P&P) for a made/completed model, and IMHO not a very well made one! And the kit can be bought new for about £7, so?
 
Lots of people sell or try to sell completed models on eBay.

In fairness £10 is quite cheap compared to some of the asking prices for what look like pretty average models.

I’m not sure how many actually sell them, I suppose it’s a way of trying to get your foot in the door for commission building 🤔

Yes 😮
I just thought it may be his first build so I didn’t want to be too harsh.
Check out eBay for some right pearlers 😳

Must admit I had to bite my tongue and not reply to the thread. As you say it could be his first build, but then I looked at the ebay listing (it was still there last night) and there was some minor negative feedback, just a little, about other kits, so who knows....

Wow I might check it out, if he sells that for £10 I’m going to list some of my less accomplished models (tat) 😵‍💫😂
