+1 Received my order from Derek today. Factory sealed 1/20 Tamiya SF70H for less than half the price of what I could get it for on ebay. Prompt delivery and well packaged. I am quite sure that he does NOT set postal rates, or duties, or tariffs, or VAT's, or sales taxes. Take any complaints elsewhere.

.......especially rates and conditions for other countries. Most sellers won't even offer to ship globally, deal with it.

Adding my ‘positive review’.

I’m in Aus, but not the person Derek referred to.

Not to take the discussion into politics, but Aus (and one or two other countries) has really turned itself upside down trying to keep covid out. Borders shut (so no flights, meaning no belly freight for parcels) and all sorts of activity shut down at short notice. Last night there were no dairy products at my local supermarket because there was a covid case in the distribution centre. On it goes...

In my opinion its entirely reasonable to charge premium rates for trying to navigate this ‘complexity’.

Not really useful for personal shipping, but DHL remains a great option for Aus. They use their own planes, so have maintained a reliable service throughout.

Another positive review for Derek, great prices on the kits IMO, great communication.

Packaging was awesome and the price on the USPS label was actually a bit more than he charged me so no shipping games being played here!!!

Top seller, Thanks again Derek!!

I bought a Brabham BT49C transkit from Derek at a reasonable price. I received the kit within 3 days. So, don't hesitate to buy from him.

Add this to the growing stack of positive reviews, I received my Lotus 72E this afternoon. It only took 2 biz days to get to my house and at a good price for the kit too! Having been a seller myself, shipping is just expensive and it sucks for all involved but that's how it is.

Great seller and I'd definitely buy from Derek again.

Oh man, and I can't wait to start on this kit, man what a proper-looking 1970s massive wings & tires racing car the 72E is! :shock: 8) :mrgreen:
