Just got a Trumpeter T-34 of Ebay for $110. And just wonder how this kit is priced out in stores. Was it a good deal, or should I consider myself ripped-of.

And I should say that shipping is free...

As far as I know, that would be a good deal compared to prices in stores in the States and Britain. But try these two online shops in Hong Kong.. I know for me in Egypt, they are much cheaper even with shipping cost.

hobbyeasy.com

I think you'll see a big difference in prices. Hope this helps you out for future purchases.

I believe the 1/16 T34 with shipping from hobbyeasy comes out to about $108.

One warning though if you ever decide to buy anything from either store. Don't go for the surface shipping. You'll probably end up getting it after 3 or 4 months. Air mail gets there within a week or so.
