I take it you are referring to Tiger Models? I shop at Ebay models myself :ha: ! Till last night when the wife banned me from it :cry:

I have about 6 more kits to buy!

Tiger models is a good spot for buying kits seeing as they have a huge stock, and maybe buying paints I can't find anywhere else. But I like birchalls slightly more. They have cheaper pricing.

Do you Taswegians ever order stuff from the Mainland? There's some pretty decent shops (Frontline Hobbies, Victorian Hobby Centre for example) and I wouldn't think that interstate postage should be astronomical. I ordered two kits from VHC and it was only about $5 to Sydney.

I usually shop on ebay. The prices are good, except postage from the U.S which is very expensive!!

Well, considering I only had to pay 3.50 postage from sydney to tasmania for one of my earlier kits, it was fine for me.
