That should be "Recommendation" in the title (darn fat fingers)! A few weeks ago I ordered a UM Models 1/72 scale M4A2 with a dozer blade to go with my newly acquired 1/72 scale Academy M25/M15 "Dragon Wagon"--through Amazon. This hard to find kit arrived today in great shape in a small box from Plastic Models Store in the Ukraine. I was greatly pleased with the customer service at PM Store, and received a nice note back from Artem there when I was inquiring about the shipping a couple of weeks back. The Package was registered with the Ukraininan P.O. In Kiev, and with the USPS as well. Although it took a while to get it through the Ukrainian P.O. (About ten days), as soon as it hit the states, it made it to me within 4 days-- which is way ahead of schedule based on my "free shipping" provided by Amazon, which predicted arrival from 15 February-15 March! When I opened the box, I found a nice note from Plastic Models Store, two (very good--yum) Ukrainian candies, a 1$ Ukrainian note (not sure the exact denomination-- it has a "1" on it), and a $5 coupon & 10% off of my next order! This is great service, and I found it easy to communicate with this store even halfway around the world. That hasn't been my experience with other companies right here in the US. So, I'd just like to say, if you are considering a purchase, Plastic-Models-Store.com is one of the best ordering experiences I've ever had. They have some really hard to find kits on their website as well.

I have ordered a few items from them both from ebay and directly from their store. Great shop.

I also bought some stuff from their store. Bought around 10 different Figure sets. The e-mailed me and asked if they could open the Boxes, so the delivery cost is lower!

Great shop

I now have several pieces of Ukranian money from them, and their candies sit on my workbench awaiting consumption - tasty! I like their service, and they ship nice and fast.
