Lots of Inbound Products Being Prepped for Shipment

Dragon’s 1:72 Scale German Early Production Sd. Kfz. 162 Jagdpanzer IV L/48 Tank Destroyer with Armored Side Skirts – Fallschirm Panzer Division ‘Hermann Goring’, East Prussia, 1945

We have a number of new 1:72 scale items showing up over the next few days from such notable manufacturers as Dragon, War Master, Hobby Master and Panzerstahl. Since many of you have placed pre-orders with us cutting across many of these companies, we have to wait until all of the new products arrive before processing these items for shipment. While this delays their shipment to our customers, it also reduces shipping charges as well as workload, so we ask you to please bear with us as we begin prepping these items for turn around.

Ebay Integration to Begin This Week

According to our web hosting solution, we will soon be able to launch ebay listings through our web site rather than from a third party developer. This means that our auctions will be broader in scope, more timely, more informative and, above all else, be integrated within our order fulfillment system complete with an order number. Fortunately, this comes ahead of the all-important holiday season, making this a critical addition to our full-featured e-commerce site. We hope you enjoy our latest improvement!
