    Hello and welcome

    The first GB of 2015.

    Any kit that had a retail price of £10 or under. (No super E-bay bargins with £90 kits bought for a fiver).

    You may open a build thread and post the box art and sprues but no building until the first of Jan.

    Just a technical question Ian.

    Which is the limit to the Euro users? 10€ as well, or the money equivalent 12,75€...?

          Ian are we allowed to use kits that come with paints and glue? Like this one for example:

                do we have to provide some kind of proof as to the value?............price sticker?, receipt? link to a model shop with the price?

                  Well I would like to think that we can trust each other. If the price is on the box fine. If you feel the need to justify the price feel free, but we all know pretty much what things cost sort of.

                  Just remember that £50 kits bought on ebay or the charity shop for a fiver is taking the mick.

                        Does this qualify Ian?

                        http://www.airfix.com/aircraft/1-48-scale-military-aircraft/bae-harrier-gr-3-1-48.html

                        Airfix have been flogging them off cheap for months! Can't find it for this price in the shops though.

                          I say it does, Its just an offer and from a "regular shop" even though its bending the rule a bit. However. I can see that this will open a flood of "it was in a sale so I got this £99.99 for £9.99"

                          I will leave it to your conscience. Or until someone cries out in dismay.

                            That's good enough for me

                            It's been months since I've even looked at the workbench. Hopefully this'll sort my mojo out.
