Confusionreigns178 Posted October 13, 2022 Share Posted October 13, 2022 A very forthright statement, at a time of enormous crisis in Ukraine. I cannot criticize the content, considering the whole situation. Cheers. Chris. chukw, BiggTim and hworth18 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dutik Posted October 14, 2022 Share Posted October 14, 2022 Well, that's a very clear code of conduct Just bought one more ICM kit (not there, but it counts too) to support the people there.

ivanmoe Posted November 26, 2022 Author Share Posted November 26, 2022 (edited) So, my model arrived, adorned with substantial quantities of Ukrainian stamps: And inside an ICM kit in more or less perfect condition: Admittedly, this was something of a sympathy purchase. And I'd NEVER advise anyone short on pocket change to order a kit from a warzone. However, it did serve my, perhaps, ham-handed desire to express a degree of solidarity with modelers eight time-zones distant. I'm gonna save the stamp sheets to display with the model. Hope the war ends soon, for the sake of all involved. Edited November 26, 2022 by ivanmoe markiii, D.B.

Hope the war ends soon, for the sake of all involved. Yes, lots of stamps are common for international shipping from Ukraine. And it takes some time, especially nowadays, but they are reliable. Not to forget the bulletprrof wrapping, which is a hallmark of online shops in the ex-soviet countries What is this for a boardgame below the parcel?

Confusionreigns178 Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 A good gesture on your part, Ivanmoe. As you say, let's hope that this horrible conflict is resolved very soon (although I suspect it won't be, unfortunately, and the Ukrainian people will suffer more). Cheers.

AlanG Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 I ordered some Foxbot digital camo masks from Ukraine just after the war started. The order was cancelled not long after because of the situation but rather than taking my money back i told the seller to keep it. Like you @ivanmoe it's just a little gesture but one i am willing to make. ivanmoe, Jack and chukw 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
