Re: Where to buy?

www.hlj.com (Japan)
www.scaleracecars.com (USA)
www.greatmodels.com (USA)
www.mediamixhobby.com.sg (sg <--- hello!)
www.etamiya.com (Hong Kong)

They all are nice but if you live in USA scaleracecars is the choice! Great service and tons of stuff! and I don't get a discount or anything to advertise it LOL

I get most of mine from ebay, never had a bad deal yet. Most however come from Hong-Kong from various sellers. We all buy far too many anyhow, I`m a newbie to modeling and already have built up around 30, mainly Tamiya, models. Skylines, Ferraris and Porsche. I just hope that I live long enough to build them.

Rodrigo, dont give the links. You were just creating a reason for him not read the FAQ. If he asked this question (which was covered in the FAQ) he will ask more questions covered in the FAQ).

UPS!

You're right... by trying to help I separated him from the "great well of knowledge" won't happen again!

READ THE FAQ!
