MHaz Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 (edited) Gents, Sprue Bros. is having a special sale until Sunday, Oct. 5th. Buy a NASA boxing of the Wolfpack T-38A Talon, get a FREE! copy of the Vagabond T-birds with Talons sheet! No coupon code needed, no secret handshakes, just add the model to your cart, and the decals come along for the ride. That's a $20 value for free!

dylan Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 (edited) I had myself down for 2, but the $38.50 for shipping killed the deal. thats usps airmail from the U.S. to Canada. just for a laugh i checked what shipping would be from Lucky model in HONG KONG!!! $15 and because I live in Vancouver it takes about the same amount of time to get here. USPS is killing your small businesses. Edited September 24, 2014 by dylan Quote Link to post Share on other sites

USPS is killing your small businesses. That's from Sprue Bros, and is for the kit and decals. If you're just wanting the decal sheets, it's quite a bit cheaper, from both Sprue Bros. and from the Vagabond website. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dylan Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 I have been looking at getting a T-38 kit for a while. and the deal with sprue brothers is too good to pass up....but. the shipping is just too high. And I understand this is not Sprue bros. fault. but usps has their heads plugged firmly in their collective rectum if they think I am going to pay that for a really light box to come from Missouri to Canada. I can get Fedex or UPS to overnight it to me for about the same. so to be clear I do not fault SB for this in any way whatsoever, the USPS shipping is what made me rethink if I really needed a T-38 kit.

dmk0210 Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 (edited) Oh man I *just* bought a Wolfpack T-38 on Ebay and the decals direct from Vagabond. Squadron would have saved me about $12. Edited September 24, 2014 by dmk0210 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Winnie Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 Dylan, try to have the thing shipped to a PO BOX or parcel holding place south of the border, and drive down to pick it up. Should be easy peasy, and the shipping will be ridiculously much lower which is quite annoying... Cheers H. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MHaz Posted September 25, 2014 Author Share Posted September 25, 2014 Better hurry! My last restock to Gordon for this sale got there this morning, and is already over halfway gone! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
fulcrum1 Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 Yeah, I bought three of them.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dylan Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 well dammit I bit the bullet and ordered 2, the shipping isn't as big of a hit if you add a ZM 1/32 P-51 kit. total $48 shipping with tracking. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
