Regards - dutik Actually many small producers are replacing the cost of a website by the free use of FB or other social networks. I do not like it either as their products are not easy to find and are quickly buried behind tons of other things. However, I'm understanding the cost/benefit issue for advertising the release of small batches. In the end, as you pay through PayPal, you are protected as a customer as you would be through the use of any commercial website.

dutik Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 It's not about finding the products at the site or the how-tos of payment. I plain refuse to use Facebook and other medias like this. My privacy stays private. Period. Your mileage may of course vary regarding social medias. Regards - dutik BTW, there is something called Ebay. Or if you (or your government) refuse any services provided by Big Satan, go for Aliexpress. Both do the trick. blackbetty and Pete Fleischmann 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm fully understanding your standpoint. I very rarely post anything on FB and only use it for the goal it was initially created: stay in touch with old schoolmates. Nothing more except some contacts with craftsmen for which the initial contact is done that way. Nonetheless, at least having an empty account is giving access to many things that are unfortunately unavailable out of it. Ebay or Aliexpress are pure selling platforms on which you cannot easily interact. As I wrote, even if I don't like the solution, I'm understanding why some people are using it.

Tony T Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 May we please set aside the arguments about logistics and somebody post a link to the products? I just spent £35 on Renaissance sets for a 5BA. Would like to know if another 5 is necessary! Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daniel Leduc Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 I guys, Here some quick pictures of the conversion for my 5BA Mirage I got from them, and I can confirm, the quality is there.... Since there was no specific set for a Belgian Mirage, so for a BA Mirage I had to order an Elkan set with a P4 nose cone. .. Did proceed my order tru email to Herbert and it took 3 weeks to arrive in Montreal.... Not gonna use all the Elkan parts but that's a good startup and top quality compare to what's available today...(for a 5BA) and definitly gonna try some more... Will follow with the instruction sheet.... Dan. thierry laurent, Tony T, Rockie Yarwood and 2 others 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Leduc Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 And here's part 2..... Those instructions are quick, clear and simple.... I love it. Dan. Vulcan, dutik, Tony T and 4 others 3 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
