ScottsGT Posted May 14 Posted May 14 Two more gone! Made a package deal for the old Revell Stuka and Revell B-26 and sold them together. 3
Martinnfb Posted May 14 Author Posted May 14 It always feels good when you can get some cash back, to spend it almost immediately on more kits 3

ScottsGT Posted May 15 Posted May 15 LOL! I’m actually saving to buy the new Lukgraph Duck that’s coming this summer. 3
Martinnfb Posted May 17 Author Posted May 17 Ok , I pulled the purging trigger once again and drop these babies off at the local hobby store. Both are new , but ginormous and the free space is the priority right now. 3

And yet somehow I can't find the M8 Greyhound that should be in there too. 2
Martinnfb Posted May 17 Author Posted May 17 I would say, 3+ cubic feet of free space easily, well worth it. 3
PanzerWomble Posted June 9 Posted June 9 Pesky relatives taking up oxygen ....and other resources oh you mean plastic ?? And sold a built 190 in 1/48 to a guy in Austria . TBH too tied up with 1:1 cars, motorbikes , landscaping , health issues and crumbling relatives to do much modelling , however my 2025 re focus has moved towards :- 1/48 aircraft ( not jets ) and 1/35 armour , and giving up on any offerings from Airfix , Revell , Trumpeter, Zvezda and stuff tooled before 2000 . Life's too short for me to waste time on what I call "nostalgia builds" - crappy old toolings that rarely produce anything decent . Bit like plastic figures , they're generally not as good as nice resin, so less is more . Vignettes not dioramas etc .Just my perspective . Paints more towards ATOM as they have interesting chipping properties by reckon a bunch of Tamiya XF's will still be knocking around . Had a play with Mission , but apart from being expensive and not readily available in the UK, reckon Atoms did the same . Also cleared out stuff bought on a whim, and replaced it with more 'interesting to me' stuff . Laterz PW 4 1

I have the STug and the big half track without the gun.....I could use some some purging myself but really don't know how...I don't have a LHS and I don't have an EBAY account. Perhaps if someone here needs something?😀 I have Recently become more aware about how quickly things can get out of hand in regards to having a stash. I won't be getting anything more as far as models. Supplies and tools needed only.. for awhile. I have seen a few Websites state "We buy Collections". has anyone tried this....? 2
ScottsGT Posted June 9 Posted June 9 Good grief. I sold a couple more kits on eBay over the weekend. For some reason the eBay shipping calculator was telling me Priority shipping was more than I sold the kits for and what I charged for shipping combined. When I calculated shipping using their system it told me about $17. Today they wanted to charge me $36. I only got $34 with shipping and that’s before fees come out. I recalculated with FedEx home delivery for $19. 3

Martinnfb Posted June 21 Author Posted June 21 Indeed it is, I had 3 of them. Considering the amount of 109s in my stash, it was time to say byeeeee. 2
Martinnfb Posted July 21 Author Posted July 21 Purge continues, Strike birdie was avenged by four Heinekens-111. 3

Martinnfb Posted July 24 Author Posted July 24 That mustard is an absolute necessity. It’s magical like the unicorn tears and equally expensive since it’s made by Tamiya. 2 1
