I bought something from mico-mark ONCE. Now every month I get a real nice catalog. They have some really neat stuff....but there prices scare me away , not to mention shipping charges..Does there stuff seem to be overpriced to you? or do You buy from them on a regular basis...?

I've gotten a number of things from them and have been pleased with everything. I do a local search first because - yes - they do seem high on things I can get elsewhere. So do a bit of a search first then get the stuff you from MM that you can't get locally.

Hi guys

I have to echo what everyone else has said. The stuff is priced a liittle high but some of the stuff can't be found elsewhere. Also I've always been pleased with the products and service. I would suggest shopping around first to see if an item can be found cheaper.

I have to agree, although they do have some unique items.

I had contacted them to see about a dealer account so that I could sell their stuff in my shop, which is fine, but since I am in Canada, my first order has to be at least $1200US and subsequent orders $500.

If I lived in the US the first order only has to be $400, and subsequent orders only $75.

The Micro-Mark catalogs newest issue is ALWAYS the main reading in our hallway bathroom.
I get another catalog from Model Expo Co. that has a bunch of the same stuff for a lower price(usually).
Of the stuff I HAVE gotten, I have been very pleased with.
My birthday was last sunday and my girlie got me the positionable vice! Can't wait till X-Mas!
