Question Please be so kind, if you would.............

I am fairly new to collecting. I tend to concentrate on Matchbox(have nearly all), and Corgi. Suggestions on where to find the best deals on 1\72 scale Corgi WWII bombers would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
geewhy

Welcome Geewhy! Depending on the bomber you're looking for, I usually go to several different retailers or Ebay even. Look up Choate76 on Ebay, he usually has a couple of Corgi deals.

Good luck!

Welcome geewhy! Where from? As for Corgi bombers, just have to shop around. There are a few good places to get them, like Pete's, The Flying Mule and eBay.

Re: Please be so kind, if you would.............

I recommend The Flying Mule on account of the reasonable prices and shipping cost. Aiken's Airplanes has a lot of stock and also have reasonable prices & shipping cost. If you need to find something no one else has and you're willing to sacrifice your left arm, right eye and a day's wages for shipping, go to Perry's Aircraft Hobbies.

Trex is correct. Choate76 on ebay offers what I have found to be the best deals on Corgi 1:72 bombers. I have purchased 4 from him and very happy with my prices. Set the maximum you will want to bid, and if you get out bid, don't worry. He will offer it again, and most likely you will be able to pick it up at the price you want. And he will also hold one if your bidding on another one and ship them together to save you a few dollars on shipping.

Welcome to the forum, geewhy! Don't forget checking the classifieds right here also. Fellow forumites are a great place to buy aircraft!
