HLJ warning!
OMG!! I don't know how long it has been like it, but HLJ has had a massive slimline tonic. I don't think there is even half the stuff they used to have. Does anyone know why? Are they goin' dahn?

Re: HLJ warning!
Their stock list has shrunk considerably and i am wondering why. Even models that were in stock just yesterday are not in the inventory. Just seems a bit weird and all-of-a-sudden to me.

Re: HLJ warning!
I'm sorry if this seems trivial, but i thought it was quite significant, as it is/was a very good source of materials. And ok, it is a bit of a duff warning as it has happened already.

Maybe they were just doing some database cleanup? Could be that lots of items they had listed were OOP but since nobody was ordering them, they did not realize it, or they just had not got around to it removing them. That would explain inventory lists becoming shorter or whatnot. I don't shop at HLJ so I can't say for sure. What "stuff" are you talking about? Plastic kits? Accessories? Paints? Any particular company like Tamiya or Aoshima?

Re: HLJ warning!
Models and wheels were the things i noticed most and some studio 27 decals and the like. Tamiya, fujimi and aoshima were the makes i looked at.

Strange indeed, only 6 Tamiya car kits available? Only 22 items in Fujimi's auto accessories?
I'd say there's a database issue. Time will tell.

It has to be an internal database FU...I searched a few items that didn't come up on the mfg's lists, and they come up in stock. Perhaps someone should bring it to their attention, they may not know about it.

Re: HLJ warning!
Yeah, seems like full inventory is availble if you view by the advanced search.
