hey

just wondering do you guys use trademe as a internet hobby shop.ive seen a few things on trademe that ive never seen before at the LHS.

matt

Well I'm starting to sell a few things on Trademe. I've given up buying kits that I'll never make, time to turn them back into money.

ive found a jagdtiger,flak 36 and 37 and also metal tracks for a t-34 (all are 1/35) that i have never seen before so it is now a opition for me.

Hardly used it to be honest despite its recent 700 million dollar sale.

When it comes to buying kits, i still prefer ebay as buying overseas would normally allow me to get a few kits at a much cheaper rate.

Yep, ebay is certainly the way to go. I've managed to pick up quite a few kits that I've always wanted and will probably never build!

Hi Matt

I have been using it and I have got some real good buys.

Tamiya Sturmtiger $35.00 Tamiya Tiger I (initail) $30.00 and local pickups as well

I will look out for your stuff on there Phil.

I've picked up a couple of good ones on trademe too, A 1/35 Dragon Panther D Kursk $40-00, a Trumpeter FaunTank transporter 1/35 $70-00 and a Tamiya SD Kfz 9 Famo 1/35 for $75-00 plus several Itelari armount kits at good prices. I have a look through about twice a week to see what is on offer.

Damn.......................why did I tell you guys that?

I've bought a few tamiya kits from Hong Kong buyers on ebay. Very good price and the freight is a lot cheaper then shipping from the USA. When you do a search for tamiya or dragon filter it to show what country the buyers are from

you may have recentkly seen on trademe a 1/35 dragon Pather d kursk with eduard PE set,i won that auction,i got it cheaper than buying just the tank at the LHS which is around $80+ and then the eduard set which would be $30+ so i got a good bargin.

No I wasn't bidding.

I simply had my eye on it and was tracking the auction but misconstrued when it was to end and missed my chance.

Just let me have first option if you want to sell the package at some stage in the future LOL.
