Here you go Paul. This list is kits as priced from a well know shop in Hong Kong (that ships kits to the States)and then from a well know Mail Order shop in the states:
Hong Kong Price
Trumpeter 1/32 02263 P-47D Thunderbolt US$57.00 Size/Weight: 48.0 x 29.7 x 11.0
Trumpeter 1/35 00394 Italian C1Ariete MBT w/ uparmored US$19.00
(special order) Size/Weight: 41.0 x 26.0 x
U.S. Price (discounted 10%)
P-47D Thunderbolt Fighter 1/32(54mm) $116.96
Italian C1 Ariete MBT 1/35 $40.46
I am now buying my kits, usually several at a time to save shipping cost, from Hong Kong. Even after shipping, which really isn't that much more than shipping in the States, I am saving tons of money. Kit prices here in the states are getting crazy. 50 plus for a little Pz II model. Come on. Who we kidding. Sorry LHS (I know its not your fault) but my money is going overseas.
