2007 Catalogue already on Ebay! (1 Viewer)

[hhenry]

A UK person is selling the 2007 Britains catalogue on Ebay already!

How is it that we in North America don't even have ours yet though? Where is it printed? I'm a member of the Collector's Club and I've been told to expect it in a couple of weeks. I would have thought dealers would get it earlier. Do any Forum have it also? If so, could you possibly post some photos please?

Hi Hugh,

Very interesting development. I suspect they are done in the UK and this person has a source at the print shop or is a member of the UK Club. This at least reminds me I need to renew.

Keep forgetting to call them. Anyway, it will be interesting to see what this sells for.

All the best

Dave

You are correct...they are printed in Britain. If it makes you feel any better I will not have mine until later today, but I will be giving them out at the Michigan Toy Soldier show in Livonia Michigan this Sunday.

Ken,
Good to hear that you are getting yours. In your position, you should at least be getting it sooner than somebody trying to make a buck off it. I contacted the Ebay seller and he said he received it from the "company's UK rep."

Re your PM, maybe you would consider posting this open? Why not 1st Gear military vehicles (with Britains figures) sooner using while metal, resin - can't the current vehicles be just re-painted/slightly modified? Or I'm guessing its not as simple as that?

Dave,

As you probably know, Britains has a toll free number 1 888 771 5576 (doesn't work from Canada ). I just renewed a couple of days ago. I also realized I had never received by Nov issue of Standard that usually has the renewal reminder with it. Sorted now though.

I have my dealer copy in my hot little hand--it came today. The ones the dealers buy to hand out to their customers should be available the first week of March. In the meantime image cds have been sent out so be watching the various W. Britain dealer websites for new product.

Sneak peek....
Victoria Cross--Indian Mutiny at Meerut.

Regards,

I am currently in Orlando at a conference - when I return I should be able to get all the images to you. Hopefully that'll be done by Saturday night. We'll see.
