OzH Posted September 22, 2007 Share Posted September 22, 2007 Just thought I would let you know of a very positive experience with Belcher Bits. I recently bought a second hand Lynx, Naval version, off ebay. When the kit arrived I noticed that the decals were trashed: I contacted the seller who said that they must of been like that when he bought the kit direct from Belcher Bits. I emailed Belcher Bits, even stating that the kit was second hand, and they replied saying they would send me some replacements at no charge! I got them this morning: (The yellow bits are at the back) So a big thankyou to Blecher Bits for a great after sales service, an a HUGE recomendation for them and the kit, which looks supurb. Watch this space for a build soon! I have both the Army and Navy version so will build them in parallel. Thanks Mr Belcher, excellent service.

Dave Posted September 22, 2007 Share Posted September 22, 2007 (edited) I remember a build-up of this kit in Tamiya magazine a few years back. It's a really nice kit from what I can remember. Did you scoop yourself a bargain? Edited September 22, 2007 by Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted September 22, 2007 Share Posted September 22, 2007 I've had good experiences with BBs too, buying direct before I found a UK supplier. Very helpful & courteous... even volunteered to bring the bits with him to Telford to save me postage. Sadly I wasn't going, so paid for the postage. Good stuff, good service, good price (especially with the exchange rate like it is)... what more can a modeller want? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a seasoned ebayer with rules, such as, never bid above 2/3 retail, etc, but on this occation I went a bit overboard, then found it cheaper from a www shop!! Never mind, you can't win them all! got the Army one for next to nothing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnonymousER99 Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 I posted a want ad over at ARC a couple of months back and had several people offer both Army and Navy ones to me. I scopped up both from one guy for $100.00 USD. Basically I got one for free. Now if someone would come out with the Lynx demo decals I would be starting my Navy one NOW!! It looks sweet in the box.
