KITLINX: Copper State
« on: January 30, 2019, 08:51:12 PM »
I went to order a Copperstate Nieuport 17 Early at Sprue Brothers and they were Out of Stock. Searching for another distributer I found KITLINX. The Nieuport showed in Stock and was priced at $79.00.. I hit the order button and signed up for an account. The down side was their shipping cost. Cheapest I saw was $17.95 from Utah to North Carolina. So the total was about the same as it would have been at Sprue Brothers. Still too early to comment on service/delivery. As always no affiliation etc.

How about section 8 hobbies?

Thanks Edgar, I will keep them in mind for future orders. I hope to get my early version from kITLINX fairly quickly as I actually paid a few dollars extra to get Priority Mail shipping via USPS> We shall see  8)

Got Notice today that My Nieuport is waiting at the Post Office. That is very quick delivery here in the Mountains. So I would certainly recommend KITLINX for excellent service. Shipping was high but as I said I paid about the same as I would have from Sprue Brothers. ( I almost Never reach the free shipping plateau on any of my orders)

As a foot note for those reading this-Jadar Hobbies has the Noops on for $65.49US and $12.58US shipping to Canada. I would guess shipping to the US would be similar. In stock items usually get here within the month so patience is a bit of a factor. There is also a discount available as you reach $ amounts. I've used them for years and never had a problem. jadarhobby.pl
