Re: Prices for new kits solution.....

I pick up most of mine off auction as stashes get hit by the
recession. Got a Dragon 1:48 Bachem Natter kit for less than 40%
retail. I have never seen so much PE in one kit :-)

If you looked through my collection you'd find remarkably few 'new'
kits. I prefer to scrounge around and wait for Squadron to lower prices
below the MRSP.
