Discount Sets Mid Tiger 1 and future production.

[Mike Stannard (toyrific)]

In an effort to plan the rest of this years production I am offering discount sets for the Mid Production Tiger 1 due for release in 2010. These can be ordered and paid for in a payment plan or paid in full for a higher discount.

Current production plan.
May 09. Outstanding orders for the Tiger 1 Stowage Bin completed by the end of the month.
June 09. Complete orders for the Tiger 1-2 and Panther Cupolas and PzIII Sets. May run into July for delivery.
July 09. Finalize molds and production of the Tiger 1 Feifil Units with expected delivery in August.
Aug 09. Start production on new items for release by the end of the year.
Sept-Dec 09. Back to normal production. By this time I will have a small assemble workshop set up at which most of the simple assembly will be done. This will give me time to concentrate on making new parts, assembling the more complicated items and filling orders.

The last few months have been a problem for me due to the fact I took on to much in 2008 for one man to handle. The current economical crisis in a way help me as I was able to catch up on orders, I am now down to only ten orders to complete not including the Stowage Bins, Cupolas, PzIII Sets and the Feifil Units.

The idea behind the offer of the Mid Production Tiger 1 sets is to help me plan production. I need to be able to order photo-etched sets and cast parts in quantity to fill orders. I am no longer able to maintain all parts on the shelf ready to deliver. I am now in a situation with over 200 product lines that I need pre-orders with some delivery time. This does not effect many of my products, but the more complicated items which require large photo-etched parts and assembly do need lead time.

Set prices do not include shipping, insurance and payment fees. With these large payments you may pay by bank wire direct to my bank account which will not be as high as paypal fees.

Tiger 1 items from my catalog that are not listed above can be added to order at the same discount. These can also include items from other sections such as Fire Extinguisher, Antennas, Flags and Ammunition. Orders can also be modified to suit your needs.

Mid Prodcution Set orders will be completed around Dec 09, maybe sooner. I will notifiy customers when order is complete and you can then decide wether to pay the balance of your order or wait until the due date of your final payment.

To all those considering placing an order for any of my products please allow over the next few months some time for me to fill your orders. When I receive an order I will try to give you a good estimated time for delivery. Delivery time all depends on the contents of your order. Once my assembly workshop is set up and I have cleared all outstanding orders I will be able to fill most orders in about two weeks or less.
