Does anyone know where I can get a Strawberry?

Corgi 1/72 B 24 Strawberry Bitc- ? The cheapest I have seen is $150. I have looked all over the WWW. If anyone knows a place I can order it that has them cheaper I would appreciate the tip. I was going to get a different B 24 but I saw the Strawberry B at the Air Force museum and I really would like to have it. Just looking to save a little money if possible. Thank you.

Re: Does anyone know where I can get a Strawberry?

The Mule is going to be your best bet at a decent price on this VERY rare bird, and paying $100-150 isn't out of the question (The Mule has free shipping to boot). Other than that, your only hope is getting a deal on Ebay.

Having just bought one the Mule has the best price short of waiting for an Ebay bargin. Perry's price is close if you live in California and have to pay sales tax.

Re: Does anyone know where I can get a Strawberry?

Thank you. I figured as much. Now is the Strawberry a "limited" piece? I know they are all limited but some I guess are more limited? Sorry, I am new to this scale so please excuse the lack of knowledge. Thank you.

You can get a strawberry from the strawberry patch, or from your local grocery store (not sure think they'd sell you just one, however).

It's good to see sarcasm is alive and well. I told you those Ohio people were trouble.

I bought mine off ebay, I cannot remember what I paid for it but it wasn't more than $90 if memory serves me well.
I bought it about 18 months ago, and I have seen a few on there since at around $100.

I should have said that I bought of the UK site so its not much help considering the outrageous shipping costs these days.

The Mule or Perry's is where you could get one. They come and go on ebay.
 

Keep'em flying.
