Life is good!

Just checked my Credit Card Bill...

I was charged 24 pence for my Ferrari kit and a tube of Tamiya putty yesterday!

I guess that makes it the cheapest kit I have ever bought!

If I were you, I'd go back and buy out their whole stock! If it comes out at the right price this time, just return them.

(I do not actually endorse this.)

Nice idea, but I don't think I could live with single handingly causing the bankruptcy of the best model shop in Melbourne!

Yeah, the decimal point is in the wrong place!
Instead of charging the card $66 it is $0.66!!!

such a small dot too!
