The wing mounts are very rare I have been looking for about three years.
DMS had some but I missed out.Check the DMS vintage list to see if they
have any of the other bits you need.

Cheers Moggie XL for the reply,

Have checked every DMS email but only managed to catch a few items, missed many by only a minute or two.

Yes I think it's a bad time for DMS to release the new list at 2 in the afternoon.Anyone who has access to a PC at that time will get the best parts.

Not the case to be honest....

We have now sent the list out on around 15 - 20 occasions as things have been added etc and only once or twice has there been an instant surge straight away within minutes.

Lets also be clear, we have sent the lists out at anywhere between 12noon and 7:30pm not always at 2pm, none of the times are planned they are simply as and when we get chance to around serving customers in the store, unpacking incoming orders and processing our everyday mail orders which all have to come before clearing out old stock of vintage stuff sadly and on many occasions the time to do this is earlier in the day when we are not so busy....

We could have just offered the items to the first few people who came along but we didnt, we compiled a list of interested people and then send the same list out to everyone at EXACTLY the same time (people from all over the world are now on that list which now contains 14 different countries and over 300 people...) Dont think that there is any fairer way that we could do it to be dead honest..... Now if we were auctioning the stuff and trying to get the bids as high as possible (ebay style) I would understand, but we are not, the asking prices on everything are on the lists for all to see, we get the same amount wether the list goes out at 2pm or 8pm.
