I wish you could get bargains like that in UK hobby shops.. unless a shop is having
a "closing down sale", more or less everything here is full retail price, even if it's
years old.
I suppose that's because most of the model shops here (other than the Modelzone chain) are individual
enterprises, rather than nationwide chains (who can lower their prices and often give discounts and deals
due to their high income).
Last year Modelzone were selling 1/32 Hawker Hunters and 1/48 Ju52s for half-price, however I didn't buy
either simply because of the size!
