Hi Gil,

A nice piece of oak around all that shiny brass will look real good.

Nice choice

If it`s of use I have posted a link below for a company that does Polycarbonate, it`s UV protective, cut to size and can be delivered next day.

Prices don`t look to bad either.

Polycarbonate

Looking forward to the finished article.

I am up to issue 39 and need 40 to complete the next stage of my build. I must say I have had no problems with delivery or obtaining replacement parts where I have had some problems.

Due my next delivery shortly and I will post up to date pictures when I can

Gil

Well I spoke to soon. Delivery of parts has stalled at no 39.

No point in phoning C/S as no one picks up the phone (after 15 minutes of "your call is important to us" you tend to give up.

Emails, I am up to number 5 in my series to them, have prompted one reply of what I consider to be the standard we are waiting for delivery of parts email. Surely I am not the only one building this model.

I have had a look at the companies FaceBook page which makes interesting reading, a long list of people waiting for parts for their various Eaglemoss subscriptions

I understand and accept that there can be problems with supplies particularly if the are not UK sourced but what is really hacking me off is the lack of communication/Information

I am at present left with a partially completed model, there are still 13 issues to be received. The phrase not fit for purpose springs to mind

I must now consider my next course of action. Being retired I have time to rattle the cage

Anyone know what the legal position with these subscription builds is regarding a contract between the supplier and the subscriber

Oh and of course they are still taking my subscription each month

Hi Gil

My deliveries are also stalled at issue 39, with a couple of payments being taken from my bank in the meantime.

The latest reply to my emails (like you, and many others, I can't get through on the phone) is a fairly generic reply :


" Unfortunately we were experiencing a slight stock delay with issues 40 - 43, however the stock has now been replenished and it'll be sent at the same time as your next despatch. You'll receive issues 40 - 43, 44 - 47 and the Eyes on the Skies DVD special together within the next week or so.
I've passed your feedback on with regards to now being informed of the delay and will make sure that it's looked into. "

LMAO !!!!!!!!

Mr T speaks at 14:20

Nem gets delivery at 15:23

Woah there`s a service.

LOL LOL LOL

Well after shooting off yet another EMail to Eaglemoss this morning (I have a weekly diary note) the postman delivered a box with the next 8 issues so building will recommence next week

It is a pity that what started off as an interesting build, with some faulty parts being replaced with no problems, that their customer service became so poor that the phone was not answered and replies to EMails where intermittent at best.

Up to issue 47 of 52 now so not many more to go

I will post some more pictures next week

:-) :-) :-)

I know how everyone is feeling, still haven't received packs 40-47 and they are not answering my emails or calls. Very disappointed in Eaglemoss at the moment.
