I have as well. They are a bit unknown and as a consequence sometimes have items that have been long gone from most other retailers. In 2007 I bought a 21c Panzer III from them long after they had disappeared from the more well known retailers.

Tom used to be popular on the old GroundPounders forum and when it changed over to the SSHQ, he kinda dropped off the map. He still has some petty rare stuff available here and there.

I have bought from Fetco. Tom is a good guy. He is located somewhere out west. I think Utah. I'm surprised he has not been ordering new product. I check his site once a week....

I purchased a 21C 32X P-47 "Snortin Bull" from them last December. Good price and good service.

I have bought from Fetco most of my 1/32 models and soldiers. Tom is a great seller, also if you order from Poland!

Anyone know if Fetco is still around? I thought I'd check the site, but found it "disabled". I wonder what's up?

He closed

Post by bboc » Tue Aug 10, 2010 8:24 pm

I visited the site a couple of weeks ago and he had said he was closing up shop. He may have said that he would be selling off stuff through eBay.
