I pick up most of mine off auction as stashes get hit by the

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

Same here, I wait for the guy who just had to buy the latest and
