  3. These twin boom airplanes have quite a history. Go to you tube and type in the aircraft designation and watch, You will not be disappointed. I am selling three of my five F-82E Twin Mustangs.

  6. I don't how we should go about it, but if PayPal can give a 17% discount on postage when Service and Goods is used to complete a transaction, there is some merit in TRYING to get A.R.C. members a "corporate" discount. I have no idea what the volume is, but I imagine there is quite a bit of traffic generated by our membership. It never hurts to ask. Dennis
  7. Whiskey, I don't WANT to either. But habu2 does have a point. If people like you and me and hundreds of others cannot get our models sold because U$P$ prices are killing the deals, then the only three choices are 1) keep the stash, 2) give the stash away, 3) find a place to sell them off line. I suppose we could offer to pay 1/2 the postage. U$P$ wins, we lose and there is nothing we can do about it. It would be nice if the A.R.C. could step in and negotiate a lower rate with U$P$ because of the amount postal business we collectively generate. Dennis
  8. I believe habu2 is probably correct in setting up a table at a meet. My hesitation in doing that, is I would have to do cash only transactions because I do not have a cell phone and have zero interest in acquiring one. My wife does, but I doubt seriously she would want to go to a model airplane buy and sell meet. But, when push comes to shove (and we are heading in that direction) I will most likely bite the bullet and follow habu2's suggestion. I left Houston for a reason and I really, really do not want to go back. Dennis
  9. 15 FEB 20 11:48 am 1/48 B-29 from Dayton TX to PA $41.55 Two weeks ago, same model, from Dayton TX to North Tonawanda NY $71.25 deal killed. The U$P$ has killed 8 deals for me in a little over 40 days. I have over 60 models at reduced prices that I cannot sell because of the U$P$. Dennis
