looks like you could get a way with a cheap model on ebay... Im looking for lots of stuff, so if anyone finds a cheap seller that has fair pricing on shipping to NEW YORK, USA... than thats great!

I have to vouch for sangpolly here. I have bought numerous models from her and not 1 has arrived in UK with any damage. Boxes are always very well packed. If you read the feedback for mokpikshan58 there are a few complaints saying he only wraps the model in paper for air freight, you take your chances with him I think. For me, I will stick to sangpolly.

Thanks Chris. Chris was right. I'm sorry about sangpoly. I was wrong. I always see sangpolly starting auctions and the name just popped into my head and I started typing. Must think before I type, so stupid ! I say I'm sorry again.

I was searching and I found the right answer.



Sanxler, or Helenspirit is the real bad guy.

Sorry, again.

I checked his selling prices, and I think it is the cheapest. The shops here in Hong Kong selling at a price a bit higher than his. I think he hosts a hobby shop or is a dealer or he cannot get at that cheap price.

And the shipping cost is the cheapest too......I dont understand. The local offical post office here shipping to US at least HKD123=USD15.00 how can he get usd11 shipping cost.......

the guy you mention should not be ordered from be warn, he/she change the nick and started selling again. Before it was known as helen something, had too many bad feedback so he/she switch to a different name now. As for sangapolly she is great, but I have not receive an order from her yet but I think is due to the chinese new year. other wise she is good.

About this guy.. before he was called Helen-whatever-it-was he was called Sanxler AFAIK.... I think this is enough of a warning

I'm not 100% sure about this, though - but I'd avoid him anyway.

I am not sure if it was sanxler before

but there were so many complains about the package arriving damaged etc. Also if you order 3 models from him he is going to charge you 10 bucks per item which comes out to about 30 bucks, that is just crazy.

I just avoid him totally.

Word of advice is order from people that are power sellers. This way we know that they are legit and have many people buying from them. Even though it does not gurantee anything because sometimes post office makes the mistake which happens to me a few times. But singapolly is a good seller with decent price on tamiya kits. Don't know why she is charging more on the fujimi kits and aoshima kits.

hi guys just to let you know that the sanxler guy was/is also known as ryuluk on ebay, but for all you people in england we have two ebays!!
There's ebay.com and ebay.co.uk and as I don't have a c/card i always use the uk one!
