  3. A Rare Find!

    Posted on

    Once in a while we find some great hidden gems, and always give these a shout out to subscribers before listing on the socials. 
     
    We've managed to get hold of one of the rare Revell Battlestar kits that's complete but in part used condition.
     
    Check out the full listing, as it's priced significantly lower than the current selling price for this rare kit.
     
    Wishing all a very happy Easter!

  4. Lower Shipping Prices!

    It's not often in todays market that we get to announce that delivery costs have fallen instead of increased. For shipping on all of our items, we only charge customers the price that delivery services charge us - all packaging and admin is free - and so it's nice to be able to pass these offers down to our customers.

    The standard DPD 3 day delivery charge has now reduced from £7.67 to £5.99 for delivery direct to a home address. This covers the majority of the UK, with any extra costs only due if the delivery is to a remote location eg Highlands. In this instance, we'll contact you with the most affordable delivery options for you to choose from.

    As our regular customers know, we rate DPD very highly for reliability, efficiency and traceability - especially for the larger bulkier items - so are happy to recommend them.

    Royal Mail options are still also available for smaller items, or if your location isn't covered by the DPD network yet.

    Due to the new shipping and customs regulations introduced at the end of 2024, please note that we are now only able to deliver goods within the United Kingdom (excluding Northern Ireland).
