Good day fellow modelers

I have been scouring the internet and reaching out to some people on various platforms (modeling and social network) to see if anyone has this discontinued PE kit for sale.
If anyone here has this kit and would be interested in selling it, please let me know. Thanks in advance.
Joe

Thanks…that’s a crazy amount to have to pay but it is great that you were able to find it for me.. thanks again

Only a couple of clicks Joe!
I wonder if he really thinks that's a fair price, or if he's out of stock and just keeping the listing there as a placeholder until more come in.

Well the manufacturer is Eduard but I don't think they have any stock of that item.

Update; Eduard does have the product available however, the cost of shipping it to the US is outrageous. Now I am in a bit of a quandary. I don’t know if everyone else is experiencing the crunch of additional shipping costs due to what the moron in the oval office here in the US is doing to the world economy.

Would postage be more reasonable if Eduard sent it to my UK address and then I sent it on to you. A greetings card from UK to US is about £5 I think.

Thanks Jim, I got it figured out… that is very generous and I appreciate the offer.

My God, you'd think the PE was made out of gold instead of brass but I guess it will be available when the Demag becomes popular again. Coincidentally I dug up an unfinished ESCI Demag and Dragon 5cm Pak gun fitted to it to breath life to it for MALCOM. No PE for my build...maybe tread plates which can be bought cheap via China and it's not a knock off. Have you tried searching on Shopee or Tao Bao? Pingduoduo is now the rave here with unbelievable prices with delivery all in. I don't know how they do it. I worry for my friends though...it's like an addiction. Nobody buys from US now with postage costing more than the kit itself.

Cheers,
Wabble
