Model shop BLACKLIST

[fly1ngdutchm4n]

Hi guys!

I was wondering, there is a nice model shop directory here on ISM witch is awesome, but does anybody had bad experiences with model shops? Internet shops or model stores that is.

Maybe it is an idea to make a BLACKLIST for shops you better not order from.

I'm having a bad experience with a shop right now, (http://www.modelbouwnederland.nl) ordered a Churchill III AVRE for the D-day SIG last week, it's paid for, but not send yet. I send 2 emails, no response, tried to call them several times, no answer.
I give them one week or so before i'll take some serious action against them.


So this shop is going on my BLACKLIST, and for anybody in Europe, be warned!

I would love to here if you guys think this BLACKLIST is an good idea....

So if you know some "bad" shops that we should avoid, post them in this thread.
And keep it nice guys

I just spat my coffee out when I looked at the first line under their Email on their contact page.

Am I missing something? What do you guys mean?
Is it the 'calm before the storm' line? Because that's true!

Mine Churchill is going to be a heavy metal one....

Ha! Very funny, in a Sid James, 'Carry on Modelling', sort of way

That is the best contact link ever! definately don't have liquids in thy mouth while reading!

Seriously guys, do not order here.
Contacted the local police, they advised me to wait another week and try to contact this shop in this week.
If they do not response, I have to report to the police.
No chance to get my money back tho...

Bugger.... I'd started a cup of tea. Have to make another one now....

That line under the contact information is brilliant. Laughed all the way to work.

Also, the email itself looks quite funny in swedish. Klant means a person who is clumsy/stupid, sort of So, klantenservice, doesn't work in Sweden.. Hehe
