I priced them to move, and to take into consideration the "pick up only" clause (Did I mention I won't ship them, LOL?)

Yep, a good deal all ways 'round. I hope TTT will be very happy with them. I hate to part with them, but my situation dictates it.

No problem, guys, but I have been dealing with a lot of folks lately who do not understand the concept of NOT SHIPPING something, no matter how clearly I lay it out, someone will contact me and say "how much for shipping to East Boemfunk, TN" or something like that. Gets a bit frustrating, so I try ...

FS: 21C Plane Collection, inc. Spinach 109

Folks,

Planes are sold/gone, TTT picked them up a few minutes ago, a smooth transaction. And a pleasure to meet the man as well. Thanks for all the inquiries others have sent, sorry to disappoint folks that I didn't have any more planes to sell.

A wise move, buying now to avoid the "discontinued" premium that these pieces attract. I own a lot of the pieces you have from K&C, including the Grille, Wespe, Afrika Tiger and Mk II, Hummel, 10.5 CM howtizer, Katyusha truck, Gepard, RSO, DAK Stug, and others. Man, they are nice pieces. It is defin...

I purchased one of these 20mm Flak 30 sets, along with the Sd.Kfz 222 and Marder III from their "Arnhem 1944" collection. All are VERY nice pieces, well detalied, painted nicely, and would be great additions to anyone's collection. I highly recommend them.

Yeah, the Elephant is really nice, I might have to add that to the "wish list". I am currently looking at the Gepard and Raupen Schlepper Ost as my next "must haves" along with the Grille...I have a FOV Elephant on pre-order, but I think the K&C one might have to find its way into my collection too....

Took the plunge, bought some high end stuff yesterday

I attended a toy soldier show yesterday in Seacaucus, NJ, with my two boys. A nice show, lots of vendors, good quality stuff there. Anyhow, after agonizing a while over the decision, I decided to branch out from my 21st C and FOV collecting, and purchased a Hummel from King & Country and a 222 from ...

However, we're going as "Cannons On-Line" the business name of one of our unit member's, and that is how the powers that be are letting us skirt the rules. Yep, Fri-Sun, June 1-3. Shoul...

Well, like the real military, LOGISTICS are the key. We are fortunate that many of our unit members have large pickups or SUV's with towing capacity and decent sized trailers. We have staged most of our stuff about an hour or so from Reading, and will be moving it prior to the show. In addition, we ...
