Paul, speaking of poorly executed printed models..........have you seen the printed M18 Hellcats some joker is trying to palm off on unsuspecting shoppers on that same unnamed auction site?? Rick H.

Yes, as I'm constantly on the lookout for a decent M18. A travesty. PaulE

I'm just like Dave Ward when it comes to buying kits. I had a wish list and it is now empty except for two items that I probably will never be able to get unless I sell my soul. I check the auction everyday and you do get lucky. It takes patience and time, but in the long run, it pays off. Yesterday I got lucky and got a kit for €0.90 more, delivered, than to buy it from an online store and have to pay postage on top of the sell price...

I have only had 2 experiences where there was a mix up and I got the wrong item and they were fixed quickly. I think the fact of 2 identical items selling for way different prices is that people think the first one will go high, so they bid on the second one and hope it will be cheaper. In times like this, I bid on the first one and hope I get lucky. Other times, I think people don't see or realize there is a second identical item in the auction.........

The thing that gets my goat the most, is people offering an item with a start price 2-3 times higher than one can buy the same item for from a shop!!!..........
