I've already let the kit go to the other guy. At the end of the day I don't have room and already have 3 P-51's in the stash

Believe me, I'm not trying to burst your bubble... but provided this is the kit you're talking about:

ZKMSWS004 1:32 Zoukei-Mura P-51D Mustang

This will give you an idea of about what it should cost as this is a site used by many of the modellers on FSM:

It's about average of the price I've seen.

Hmmm, everyone is saying get the kit, but I'm wondering if it's really all that great a deal. A quick Google search and looking at a few sites reveals that the kit retails normally for about that much (and lower, ALL of the sites I looked at were lower than $120 USD and as low as $80 USD.)

I'd shop around some more...

Get the kit and send it to me.  So there you go all settled.

Looks like it's unanimous... get the kit!

If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice....

My 2 cents. Get the kit before the other guy does. Then you won't ever be sorry that you missed it. That kind of a deal doesn't come along often.

“Whenever you’re called on to make up your mind,
and you’re hampered by not having any,
the best way to solve the dilemma, you’ll find,
is simply by spinning a penny.
No — not so that chance shall decide the affair
while you’re passively standing there moping;
but the moment the penny is up in the air,
you suddenly know what you’re hoping” — Piet Hein

Dilemma
Posted by P mitch on Thursday, March 7, 2013 4:06 AM

Gentlemen and ladies

I have a dilemma. I have the opportunity to get my hands on a Zoukei_mura 1/32 P-51D for a whole lot less than it retails for. Now I have the Skyraider by the same company and its just amazing. The P-51 will sit in my stash for a long time and its a big box so storage will be a pain too, I may never even get round to build it.

The question is should I let another modeller have the kit, never met the other guy have no idea who he is so its not as if it is a friend, but he is a "brother in plastric" if you will.

Before anyone asked the kit retails for something like £200 ($250) and I can get it for £90($120)

Opinions guys/girls
