The only way to be sure is to check the certificates and the hull engraving.

Packing is a laborious manual process so it is possible that kit #33 didn't get put into box #33.

Adrian.

True that Adrian.
Mistakes happen as we’re all only human.
I’ll take a look tomorrow and confirm which I’ve received for definite.

Now you're going to get me to look at MY JagdTiger kit to see what number I have. Mine is still sealed as well.

Hi, I could help with the shipping. I live in Boston and will be attending Militracks with the Armortek display at the end of May. Just trying to help with the shipping costs.

Hi,
Sorry I'm a little slow in responding.
Militracks 2024 is quite a good idea: I'll come back to it later, I still have to work for 2 hours first.
Regards,
Jan

Good evening -
Certainly interested in the kit. It would however need to be shipped to Colorado Springs, CO USA. ZIP 80908.
Would you be interested in working with me. I typically make payments via PAYPAL.
Have a blessed day,
Raj

Do you have any news about the kit number?
I am curious now about the kit.
I still really want to take it over.
Regards,
Jan

Adrian.

That's one thing we always cross-check .. hull side to certificate to number on the box - don't think we have had a case with the box wrongly labelled yet.

Liam - your kit number is 38.

Thanks for clarifying Kian.
All sorted and amended on the listing.

Don't forget to send the track and trace!

Hi,

Can you check your emails Liam?
Problems with shipping!

Regards,

Jan

Hi Liam,
Stop playing hide and seek and reach out!!

Jan - Rather strange - no response yet from seller ?

Hi,
Be glad you didn't take the kit from him!
I bought the kit and it was sent!
Fortunately, this part went well.
But:
However, he made a huge blunder during customs clearance.(a big mess)
and now he has blocked my telephone number, because I will still get £1260 back from him OR a simple solution (an explanation) ; if he does not respond in time £7800 in import costs!!
But he doesn't respond anymore: haven't even spoken to each other yet; only get his voice mail!!
I am very disappointed in Liam!!

Hello Jan -
I am sorry you are dealing with this. I have posted a screen shot of my communication. For me - again just my opinion - I don’t entertain any transactions via bank transfer as a matter of principle . PayPal or Amex Credit card offers the best protection for both buyers and sellers. When he requested bank transfer only - I didn’t want to proceed with the deal. To me it raises a red flag when a seller doesn’t accept PayPal - I won’t proceed with the transaction. Not an accusation - just a matter of being very cautious with large transactions. Extra fees etc charged by PayPal is what is part of the transaction that ensures protection of both parties.

See my message attachment - I did ask explanation for the high import fees and DID NOT hear back. Usually tariff is collected at the border by customs but may vary. I know the tariffs for such items to the US are zero dollars since it falls under the HTC code for scale model toys. So, I was well aware that the GBP1200 he was quoting was entirely false for import to the USA. I have purchased many high dollar steam engines etc from UK and not paid any customs duty based on the US tariff codes.

If you paid that money to customs, you MAY get it back - but it will be long fight. If you paid that money directly to seller, then it is anyone’s guess how you are going to get that back.
