bring back some bargains

Andrew, the time that there were a lot of bargains was long time ago, now early Italeri kits sell at same prices as paid on ebay (sellers also look there before pricing their kits)
With some luck there is always something to find, but there are a lot of candidates too

it is good for getting to meet h&a models,fleming pedersen, mtp and various others selling their goodies though ( credit card knows it going to feel some pain )

Hi Alan, thanks for the compliment and sorry that I didn't spend more time chatting with you guys.
This weekend should always last for 2 weeks for me, as I know so many people (the disadvantage of speaking 4 languages) and there is always so much to catch up after 1 year, so I chat here and there and before I realise the weekend is over, I see people packing, some hurrying to catch a ferry/shuttle, I have not been sitting one minute on our clubstand.................
My next show is in two weeks in Hannover, in June in Gaydon, and in between I start working the weekends too from April 1st (driving racing pigeons) to afford my trips (and "bargains" here and there).
See you all in Gaydon.
