Good model shame about how item arrived
Bought model that i couldnt get anywhere else. Price was bit more than expected and postage cost was high for size of model. If did better postage costs would consider more models but at the moment dont have any new models that i collect

Thanks Neil for the feedback The cost of getting boxes and filling for the boxes, and the postage has all gone up and paying for staff wages.
Did not receive as detailed
Did not receive as detailed. When an email was sent asking where the said additional item was that was supposed to come as part of the purchase the response was appalling. No apology or offer of discount of any nature.

Was looking for a hard to find 1:43 Ford Anglia to convert for a customer.
Keith actually met me on a Sunday to get the desired model, I really appreciated this as it is fantastic Customer Service and Keith is highly recommended.
If he hadn't got it, you didn't need it.

Just great overall customer service.
Easy to order, straightforward website. Great product.
Delivered with slight damage (caused by the delivery agent, not by seller). Contacted seller re the damage, they did everything possible to provide satisfaction. Managed to fix the defect myself, the seller immediately offered me a partial refund on the original cost.
Great service from Keith, would definitely use again.
