I have come across dumasrc.com (an English vendor) and its kit prices seem too low. Anyone have experience with this company?
 
I just went to the site the prices are too low the only safe way is paypal the other is they might jack the freight up
most kit are under 100.00 pounds.
 
I have this kit and it goes over $500
But he puts photos and apparently it is incomplete.
Maybe that's the reason for the low prices.

I just sold that kit a few months ago on EBay. It is a huge model and very accurate when compare to the original tug.
Model Expo bought a huge model lot with many Dumas fittings kits to make their model R/C.
Next time I’m visit will take a closer look to what they have, maybe Carlos let’s me sell all of it. Right now is just seatting on a few boxes on a room.
 
There are certainly better and more accurate static & RC kits to be had but very few are as good a value for the money as the Dumas range. The prices are very affordable while quality is good OOB and if a model shipwright wants to go the extra mile, Dumas ships can be the foundation for a top rail build.
