Dear friends.

I announce a decision that we have taken in recent days.
Due to logistical problems that have occurred in our shipments to major retailers in the United States, we have taken the decision to temporarily suspend sales through shops, and focus only through our online store.
Apparently, the bulky shipments suffer greater damage than those who made the final customers, which caused great trouble among our dealers and us.
We have verified that packets sent to end customers directly reach their destination in good condition, and until we are able to offer our retailers a satisfactory solution that satisfies both parties, it is preferable that you, collectors and modellers, you get in touch directly with us.

We are working very hard to correct errors and to improve the quality and delivery times.

These years have tried to be present through our dealers at major exhibitions, but due to problems in customs, delivery time issues, and breakage during transport, our image in these fairs has been poor and even negative. We realize that for traders, it is much more interesting to work with larger and established companies, they solved the same problems long ago. So our decision is to temporarily suspend our relationship with these merchants, until we can serve them with the same security and quality of service that the major competing brands.

In Europe we have not experienced these problems, so that this suspension will take place only for businesses in the United States.

We believe it is the best solution for everyone. Stores do not receive orders with broken or unstuck figures, collectors will be able to place orders directly to our online store, and we can focus our efforts on solving these problems definitely be back to normal as soon as possible

what a shame and how sad...

so your product won't be on display at shows by any dealers in the US?

won't the lack of advertising/displaying them at US shows hurt sales?
 
Hi Emilio,
I'm sorry to hear about the shipment problems you are having to the US.
Out of interest are there any stockists of your soldiers in Europe. I seem to remember a store in Madrid that stocked your soldiers. Are there any other European stores that stock them? I remember a couple of years ago buying some of your soldiers from an Italian dealer at the London toy soldier show. He sold all he had on the day.
The London show in December would be a great place to showcase your products. Just an idea.
Thanks
Paul

Hi Paul,
I stocked Kronprinz in Germany And was at the London December Show two years with a Lot of Kronprinz And there was no interest for them at all. I offered them for the regulär Prices...

Hi,
I attend the London show whenever I can but I haven't attended the December shows for a couple of years now. It always clashes with a Christmas market event I attend with my family.
If I had attended I would have certainly have purchased some Napoleonic Kronprinz from you.
This year there is no clash of events so I will be attending the December show I hope to see you there.
Cheers
Paul
