Paypal worked fine for me.

I've sent the seller a message pointing out the issue. I'll let you know the response.

Can I ask people who've bought from this seller: did you use paypal or did you give credit card details?

Ebay is refusing to process a Paypal payment for me, but as far as I can see, the seller accepts them and there's no problem with either my Ebay or Paypal accounts.

I used PayPal.  Check that your credit details are correct for your PayPal account and that there is money in your credit cart account (if a debit card).   Had no troubles when I ordered but as I was the first to order...   :thumbsup:

Has anyone who bought one received it yet?

I've had no response to my query... :unsure:

I've had a notification that my T-54 has been posted and should arrive sometime between the 27th March and 11th April.
It does seem a suspiciously good deal but I paid with Paypal which gives me a certain level of protection if it's a scam.

As its from China H your query may be awaiting someone with good written english to reply to it.

Yours is coming further Gondor which makes the window longer as the tramp steamer has to drop off Guy's then come to Melbourne with mine before chuffing across the pacific and through the Panama Canal where it could be delayed behind a container ship loaded with weird old Sci Fi kits for TheChaos.
It's free postage so i'm not complaining.
When I used to  buy kits from Canadia before the Canadian post orifice stopped doing surface mail it'd take about 3 months for my models to arrive...
...by which time i'd forgotten buying them so it was nice surprise.

You forgot the twenty container loads of kits for Dizzy so he can finish off his projected builds for the Soviet GB..................  ;)

I did think of Dizz but in my head he has a 50,000 cubic metre warehouse attached to his house holding his stash...

...and it's full.
;D

He never got planning permission for the warehouse. Instead, he had to go downwards, so his house now sits on top of a subterranean kit-storage complex like the Umbrella Corp's HQ or the Cabin in The Woods...

Definitely on a slow boat from China!

Had a notification from eBay saying that the FV215 which was available at the same price and from the same source as the Conqueror from Amsung is no longer available. The seller is no longer listed on eBay either. Could well be that we might have been had but eBay does cover purchases and losses if this is the case.

I just bought something else from China:

Sale date: 12mar17
Estimated delivery date: 24mar17 - 24apr17
Actual delivery date: 20mar17

I was out when the postman came, so the package went back to the depot. This morning I got two e-mails from the seller, anxious to know if I'd received the item because their tracking was showing it as delivered but I hadn't confirmed it yet. Picked it up this afternoon (tried at 7:15 this morning but it hadn't rattled back through the system yet).

Now if one Chinese company can do that, so can others...
