Model airplanes , tanks, helicopters,etc.
Posted by geotusker on Tuesday, March 22, 2011 6:49 PM

My father had a great obsession of models all his life and and built alot of them. I have a downstairs full of built, dusty airplanes and was wondering if anyone was interested in buying them or if anyone knew of people who would be interested in them. My mother has had medical issues recently and I'm cleaning up the houe and hopefully raising a few dollars from them. Thanks for any suggestions you may give me.

Any unbuilt kits can be easily sold via teh internet or at local model clubs, swap meets, etc. Built kits are a bit more of a chalenge to unload. You can probably donate some to a local VFW or American Legion hall for display. Or have a yard sale to see if there is any interest for them.

Go online to see if there is a Pittsburg area IPMS chapter or other local area hobby clubs (you can also call or visit local hobby shops for contact info). This will open up a lot of possible connections that may be interested in the models you have.

Wishing you the best;
