A Container full of tanks

Post by nw explorer »

Delivering a container full of Tamiya last week,asked the importer for a price got a King Tiger for 140 gbp  , though he wasnt keen , doing me a favour etc .this gives some idea of the mark up on these models between importer and retailer.
Then again most Falcon /claud Butler  mountain bikes are imported from Turkey for 40 gbp.

Heres an idea, do you like cheese cakes, pavlova, sundae's or pannacota? if so, I'll bribe you with a pallet load, and next time your delivering tamiya's, you can bribe the customer! what do ya rekon?
