I'm a new member myself but a long time builder. I collected many models over the years in preparation for retirement. I now find myself with a wealth of models and no time to complete them all. As a result I would like to make an offer. I will provide a list of ships I have to donate. Anyone who wants one to build for themselves can obtain the kits as long as it is for you to build. Please don't accept my gifts and turn a round and sell them. I will include a self addressed stamped envelop with each kit. All I ask is that you pay me back for the price I paid for shipping. Shipping inn USA only please. that will be on the honor system. The kits I offer for builders on this site who are interested are as follows:

1.) Akagi Aircraft Carrier 1:350th Scale Hasagawa Hobby Kits 40025 (Plastic Kit) - Spoken for by Mostar
2.) Tamiya Bismark German Battleship 1:350th Scale 78001 (Plastic Kit) - Spoke for by Jim
3.) Heller Humbrol 1:150th Scale Pamir 80804 (Plastic Kit)
4.) RMS Titanic Premium Edition 1:400th Scale Academy Hobby 14201 - Spoken for by Hermes
A note to all who are getting these models. I have to find boxes to ship them in so please give me a few days to get them out. For the ones being shipped furthest, I will check on shipping costs an let you know before I send them out so you have a last chance to say yes or no to the shipping. I will include an envelop with each ship and trust the honor system for those of you receiving the kits can pay me back.


Again, this is an offer to help those who might want to build something but are short of funds or are a beginning builder. There are no catches. If you contact me thru this site I will ship you at no cost up front. All I ask is that you pay me back thru the enclosed envelop for the actual cost of shipping. Believe it or not, this still leaves me with over 10 kits to build. At 70 years old I think that will be enough!! Hope these kits find willing builders!!
 
Hello. I would love the Titanic kit. Would you consider breaking the set. I’m not a battle ship modeller and when time allows (family) I sneak off. Usually a few years to build anything but it my pleasure :) max
 
I wasn't going to ship overseas because the cost would likely be prohibitive. However, as you have asked for it, I will hold it for you and check on what the shipping cost will be. I'll let you know before I send it out so you have a last chance to say yes or no. Is that OK with you? You can respond with your address on this thread. I will hold any information in confidence out of respect for the members of this forum. The kit originally cost $155.99 but that was years ago. I'm sure it a little more expensive now. I hope we can work the shipping out so you can enjoy building it. I'll include an envelop for you to send me payment for the shipping once you have the model.

Please don't respond to this thread with your address ! Send it to him in a private message please !
 
Thank you for your kind behavior. I wish I could get it because I am in Turkey.
The only one left is the Heller Humbrol 1:150th Scale Pamir 80804 (Plastic Kit). I have never shipped anything to Turkey. Dm me your address and I’ll take a look if you would want that kit. I’ll get back to you with what shipping costs would be. Maybe we can get lucky if you want this last kit I have.
 
I was really touched by your kind gesture...I sent you my address via DM...
I cannot find words to express my gratitude... Thank you very much.
