I will be very happy if you revamp their site. Their search was indeed easy to use, but unfortunatley didn't find what you want maybe 40% of the time. I'm talking about knowing having a kit (saw it in their flyer), and can't find it by typing the name. Have no idea what algorithm they use for their search engine to have such poor results.

Finding the kit to order is the first step. But I decide my purchase from price and service, in that order, most of the time. It is big news when Squadron can catch up with other internet shops.

So what is the problem everyone has with the search engine?  I find it quite simple to use and have never had any problems with it

If you type in "Bf109" you get five hits. If you type in "Bf 109" (with the space in the middle) you get 360 hits. If they're not even consistent about how they label their own stuff (and, in all fairness, how could they be, with the volume of stuff that they carry?), how can the customer be expected to guess which nomenclature they use? A good search (like the late great GM's) would find either.
