on my various google searches, i came across this site in one of its many available languages.

http://www.model-making.eu/ or http://www.super-hobby.be/

the prices seem to be reasonably low on certain kits, and shippng costs (determined by weight) seem to be reasonable aswell.
but i was wondering, has anyone here have experience with this website, it is legit or just one of those shady sites that will screw you over?

nope shady like 1001 kits, if they have multiple sites for different countries stay well away, we aint got the sort of hobby for multnationals.

I was going to order from 1001 kits and then I heard somat about them and did some checking. Then the next time I looked at their site the prices were all higher !

Not sure about them, but, have dealt with the following sites, several times, over the last couple of years.
Great service, and very reasonable shipping costs, and im in Ireland!

Was a bit nervous at first about ordering, but using paypal i felt i had some kind of protection.
Have to say, i was glad i did, because the choice in most shops here are limited to either Airfix or Revell.

Bump: Nils: I do not know what your are interests are but I found that Ivan Kolenko who runs ModelsUA has been very honest and reliable.  

After you create an account and login, the prices drop by another 10-20%.

I used to deal with HLJ a lot and was always pleased with the service. Beware of import duty though.
