Good work...But in a way a shame if it means that another model type shop has gone out of business

A real bargain but agree that it's sad to see another modelshop go to the wall.

The shop itself was a shot blasting and powder coating business, thie model shop bit was a hobby project Basically a room 8ft x 4ft, it was mainly the plastic model type stuff (Dragon, Esci etc. ) he had the remote controlled stuff and the rockets, very eclectic stock really. From what one of the lads in the new business was saying was that it was  the main business that had the problems. THe new lot dont have the time or incination/knowledge to keep the model side running.

I did consider getting two of everything, but thought that was being a bit silly or greedy. I got duplicates of the things I thought I would need two of. I also didn't bother with a pile of the spray paints that were of little use..
I was tempted by the Huge rocket, but common sense prevailed  ;D

Bargain of the year :)

Doesn't even matter what they are...sell on the ones you won't use ;)
