Anyone ordered 21C or BBI 1:18 stuff from these folks before? They appear to be dealer only.. Wondering how a little civilian like me might acquire a few things?

They are a distributor for bbi - need to be a retailer, tax ID, etc..and even then I hear there are issues..

Hummmm--maybe I should use my wife's tax id from the law office to buy XD and bbi directly
Actually--I think she would kick my @$$ if I did

I'm not a big fan of Merit International. A couple of years ago, they came out with a Pak 37mm in 1/6 that was made in resin. Very fragile resin. Very, very few of these guns arrived intact. I was one of the suckers who bought one and both trails were broken inside the foam packing. None of the dealers would take them back because MI would not make good on them.
It still sits, broken. It is on my "someday I'll fix it" list, but I wouldn't buy another MI product.....ever.
