Goldy:

They have one model that I have being looking for a long time, and I had never bought from them, That's Why I asked.

That's the good thing about DA.C We can get good advise!

Thanks everyone for your prompt response; Got to go, there is a model I need to buy.

I will gladly do it, and if the service is like you all said, most likely I will stay with them.

Thumbs up JetCollector.com

I've only place one completed order with them (I have a preorder pending with them now). But, their service was so good that they are my retailer of choice now!

There is a problem with Jetcollector.com...and it is not to take anything away from them because they do give very good service It is that it is an extraordinarily popular site among collectors and retailer. (A victim of their own success for whatever reason I suppose).

Because of this, popular releases from SMA and especially Aeroclassics will tends to sell out on preorder in a blink. You owe it to yourself to check out some other very excellent guys also.

There are some other retailers who I have found that give truly exceptional service even better than Jetcollector in terms of pricing and are even more dependable. They even give significant discounts and give more personal service. And I think it would be wise for you to check some of these retailers out.

Rather than start a list here as each has their own unique nuances that beneift the collector, why don't you PM me, tell me what you're after, and I'll give you a private refferal.

Great sight! Great service! I have bought many, and will continue to do so.

In fact, you know when you go to RARE MODELS and see that the GJ TWA 747 Double Globe has been sold?...

I've got it...

Interesting, as my experience is exactly the opposite. I too have done business with just about anyone you could name on this site.

I think one thing to remember is that relationships with a retailer are like any other relationship ... they vary from person to person.

My personal experience is that I have never missed ANY release that I have wanted with JC.com in the almost 3 years I have been doing business with them .. can't say that for others I have done business with.

The service I have received is far more personal than any other retailer I have done business with, bar none!

With regards to Pricing ... I have never found anyone else that can consistently match the price I get from Dave.

my advice is try out a few retailers and then you do business with who you are comfortable with, but I a HIGHLY RECOMMENDED rating to JC.com

Even when prices have been higher, it has not been more than a $1.00 (US). And the CAP program more than makes up for that little difference when there is one. But like presidential I find that Dave's prices are not any higher than anyone elses.
