Edward Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 Are there any US distributors for Silverwings? I want to order a P6 but I am dubious about ordering direct from Poland. Would price be the same here as from manufacturer and do you save any postage either way? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reconspit Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 So, i order always directly from them, they are very kind and always make a hell of a good price with shipping, so do not hesitate in asking them directly.

Old Dog Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 In the US you can get them from Coopers Models http://www.coopersmodels.com/Home.html I have not done the math to see what the difference in total cost would be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kagemusha Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 Buy with complete confidence direct, they are very well packed for shipping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fightersweep Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 (edited) I'll add to that! I've always bought direct, and the kits have always arrived quickly for a very reasonable shipping price and very securely packaged too. Not only that, but you'll be saving by not paying the middle man's cut! Silver wings are class act all round!

scvrobeson Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 I've bought two of their kits from FreeTime Hobbies in Georgia. Always had great customer service and good prices. Usually a bit cheaper than Cooper Models, which always seems to be pricy. Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_Ron Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 I also by direct. Simon is top notch to deal with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tnarg Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 Silverwings are an absolute class act. They typically send kits in a sturdy box, with the kits inside surrounded by a second foam box made of sheets of styrofoam almost an inch or so thick. No damage problems, no worries in the mail, they get here rapidly and in great shape. That packaging is even more secure than WNW, and both are amazing in quality and delivery. If you have any interest in the late 30's aircraft, these guys are your friends. They are the best thing to happen for our scale in that era, ever.

OldTroll Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 Direct from Silver Wings many times over. Never a doubt about the model arriving in perfect condition. The vagaries of international post and customs may occasionally extend the delivery time but that is out of the control of the buyer and Silver Wings. Sit back, relax and build something else while waiting. 5 Stars!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 Are there any US distributors for Silverwings? I want to order a P6 but I am dubious about ordering direct from Poland. Would price be the same here as from manufacturer and do you save any postage either way? Using Paypal, I think you would be fine....if you have a concern about CC orders. I'll be buying direct, not worried about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thierry laurent Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 Buy direct! Excellent service, sturdy packages and reasonable prices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zero77 Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 (edited) I also order directly, and i've just done it today ! Simon is very nice and replies fast. Silver Wings kits are probably ones of the best resin kits, nicely engineered, perfectly cast, with nice scheme in the box, comprehensive and exhaustive instructions and a lot of details. Great !
