Well I guess thats not a suprise.

I think I would wait a while though before putting one on e-bay. Give it a year and I think people will be really eager to own one.

Be interesting to see what the final price is on this kit.

Think some folks would just buy it direct and save the middleman costs, but as I've heard. Say it'll be a collector item someday (like in a 110 years - lol) and you could sell nickles for a dime.

I would have thought it's someone who bought two to get free postage and is trying to recoup some of his outlay by selling the spare. Good luck to him/her/it if that's so.

Mine cost £31 when i bought them. The service from Cyber-Hobby is very good and the packinging was excellent. They were sent via UPS, have no complaints at all and will use them again in the future.

Oh and the kit is very good and well worth the extra on top of the UK price for the Initials and Lates.

Now there's another one listed, it's from the same guy who sold the one for £47.99. Makes one wonder how many he got.

Andy, i read somewhere that the different prices refer to overseas sales, the higher one, and internal sales, the lower one.

Not sure if that means the instructions would be in Japanese, or Mandarin or what, but that is apparently the difference between the two. Tell you what, if you want to take a chance order the lower priced one, and if the instructions are not in English i can send you one of mine.

Hey Andy,

i can't say how long they took to arrive as i pre ordered mine, so there was no release date. But, i know UPS are quick, i have had books from Canada in three days via them, so if they are airmail i would say a week at the most, although that is a guess.

The Swamp is "finest kind" and looking more squelchy every day
