what AM stuff I have gotten has been from squadron or greatmodels.com... both of em were ok.... great models it took about 2 weeks for them to order it and get to me... but they have a big selection. Squadron I've never had to wait for and they seem to have a big selection too..

of course I haven't ordered an awful lot yet... I did find one site last night that seemed to have a BUNCH of stuff... I'll see if I can locate it and repost it...

i get all of mine from squadron too, they have a great selection, and their customer service is top notch. i once recieved a AM canopy that was smashed in, i called them and let them know, and they had one in my mail box asap!! another time, i lost the instruction sheet to an AM cockpit, and they burned me a copy of another one, and had it in my mailbox in a couple of days again!! very nice people, decent prices, and quick service. later.

on the subject of ordering from squadron, i live in singapore, and id like to order some PE and decals. when they say shipping will be 1/2 price or actual shipping, whichever is less, do they mean it ? since PE and decals are nice and flat, the shipping is going to be pretty cheap right ?

Buy them very rarely, but if I do, it will either be a 'on the spot' purchase at a show, or a carefully planned one through Hannants.

I get mine from modelmecca.com or missionmodels.com. My LHS (Hobbytown) will also order anything as long as their suppliers carries the brand. So far I haven't been disappointed by them.
