Printed Flags

[Graham]

There is a printed flag supplied with my current build (Panart armed pinnace) and it is really poor quality. What is your experience, please, of buying printed flags - which supplier and what is the quality like? Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the response, Zoltan. Have you used these on any of your own builds? - I am particularly interested in the quality as the one in my kit looks like it is printed on nylon and is terrible. Cheers.

I have never used them but my opinion that they are much better than the kit supplied flags.Also I might just ask on the german forum.

Thanks Zoltan, I would appreciate it.

Bought some very nice flags from this German seller. He has many period historical flags. Has unusual quaint ordering method. One emails order request. No confirmation. Flags arrive within a week or two with invoice to pay by PayPal or bank transfer. Receive item first then pay. http://www.schiffsmodellflaggen.de/english/Catalog/18.Special_series.pdf

Has anybody recently purchased or known if schieffmodelflaggen is still in business? I emailed the seller for a order but haven't heard or received anything for more than a week.

Do you mean "Schiffsmodellflaggen.de" ? http://www.schiffsmodellflaggen.de/english/english.html
You have to know, that in Germany last wednesday was a public holiday (German Unity Day) - so it can be the case, that Hans-Jürgen made one week holiday and was not available....

When I ordered Schiffmodellflaggen flags via email there was no return communication. The flags just appeared in the mail. Then I paid through PayPal. Must be a shy fellow with quaint business practices. I would not worry.

In Germany most people have learned english in school, but not everybody feels comfortable with writing or speaking english ......
