Thanks Scott. I was hoping someone would have direct experience ordering from Europe, but if not then I might have to take my chance with one of these. If I do build MS kits it looks like they'll have novelty value over here anyway!

You shouldn't have to encounter any impediments I guess. Last year I ordered a plastic kit and bicycle brake levers from America.

I bought the goods on ebay via PayPal. Delivery was fast and cheap and went quickly through the customs.

I am from Austria. Great Britian shouldn't be that different. My brother often buys sound music devices directly from America and hadn't experiencend any problems thus far.

Both these distributors ship worldwide and stock Model Shipways products.
Model Expo and Naturecoast are two that I have delt with.

Buying from the US in the UK

Hi all, can anyone in the UK, or elsewhere in Europe I suppose, recommend a shop to buy from in the US? They need to stock Model Shipways as I'm interested in buying their Bluenose kit.You can't buy MS in the UK for some reason.

cheers
