i just ordered the Messerschmitt Bf-109 T-1 and the laser cut frames and canopy.

i was charged 8$ for postage which i found reasonable from poland

i will repost with how long shipment is on arrival...


thanks for the great link!!!

That's very odd. I would think this would solely be a weight and size equation.

I found there is also a combination of models that the shipping charge is almost same as model price. For example, the models price was $30 and the shipping charge is about $30. Unfortunately, this combinatino is exactly the same one I wanted to purchase.... You may ask what the combination is.... Well, try these two models:

GPM M25 Dragon and Sharman Tank...

The shipping charge will be around $30 and the model price is about $30 so $60 for all together...I would rather wait until papermodelstore.com has a stock of those... Unfortunately, I don't know when.....

M25 Dragon is in A3 format so we have the size.
Looking at the photos on GPM site, this is one big and detailed model - we have the weight then.
I don't think there are special rates for specific models but the shipping is certainly dependent on the size and weight of the package.
Weak $$$ also adds to this pain....

FYI, I placed my order on 10/23 and it arrived today! That's just a week from Poland. I will definately look at using them again for stuff that I can't get here when the postage is reasonable!

Placed my order on saturday 10/20 (so you might as well say 10/22) and it arrived today. I also would order from them again.

I have ordered from model-hobby.pl several times and the service is as good as it gets. On one occasion i ordered out of print GPM Avenger amongst other things. Few days later i received e-mail, saying that it's out of stock. I was offered to chose another kit for he same amount or refund. I think this kind of customer service is a nice touch to our hobby. On the down side, when i ordered vacform canopies, they were packed in a flimsy box and 2 out of 4 were squashed beyond useability during shipping...
