Hi All,

Just wondering if anyone has bought anything from this Hong Kong online seller Tamiya-Model www.tamiya-model.co.uk/shop/ Website looks good and prices are reasonable. I'm keen to order some parts etc, but just thought I'd ask if anyone has any experience with them? Despite the UK style web address they are based in HK.

Many thanks

Lee

They list their address as Kowloon HK, but you can never be sure! I liked that quote too...:-)
Thanks for the reply.

ok I just placed an order from a company from them, they seem to have like 10 different company names but are of the same operator. Today I get a email asking me for a scan of my drivers license and a utility or bank bill to confirm my credit card details. I find that very intrusive and personal, personally! I'm not sure if I'm going to proceed with this transaction, if my credit card has not already been debited.
