adamjets exclusive

MOONRAKER · 07-20-2003, 04:03 PM

Over on another site, Adamjets have announced an exclusive release. It is an Iberia A340-600 using GJ's excellent mould. The model looks very nice.

Bill G · 07-20-2003, 04:18 PM

Gaudi? Is that pronounced "Gawdy" like the price of this model?

The Iberia 346 looks nice,very nice,but not $79.95 nice + postage.

Sit back and wait.Either DW and/or GJ will release this soon.

Clip · 07-20-2003, 07:43 PM

Guys, it's a custom model. Handmade. Decaled. Not an exclusive release.

Spider-man · 07-20-2003, 07:49 PM

I am sure Dragon or Gemini will release one soon. More IBERIA models are really needed.

Phantom · 07-21-2003, 08:58 AM

move this discussion into "Custom models" were it belongs to and 80$ will be ok then.

EastCoast · 07-21-2003, 09:09 AM

GJ or DW will come out with one and make that custom models pretty much worthless!

The model was named Gaudi for the Spanish Architect Antonio Gaudi.

Adamjets is notorious for their high prices on custom and 'rare' models so you guys should relax and try not to get your panties in a bunch.

danv · 07-21-2003, 11:13 AM

I agree, even for a custom, 79.95 is too high. Some dealers try to make too much on some items. My dealer seems to be fair accross the board. Even his Rare Birds are priced lower than many others. And if I find a plane a little high, he usually matchs price on it, plus he does not have any 1/400 scale in this price range. My dealer used to offer customs by Vikings and none were above the $40.00 mark. I got an America West MD-11 for just over $33.00 and it is very neat and unigue. Just my humble opinion on this one.

Hey, Ron, it's probably best just to accept that phrase at face value and not think about it too much.

Unless DACers in panties are your thing in which case, 'image' away!

Oh boy... I have suddenly lost my appetite. Someone please pass the Pepto Bristol...

Manolete · 07-21-2003, 02:30 PM

I am an Iberia fan but at $79 US plus postage to Canada is just too much. Do you know how many "botas" of spanish (rioja) wine can you get with 79 dlls ? ........

Klaatu · 07-21-2003, 04:54 PM

Also keep in mind that he will charge over $9.00 for standard FedEx shipping within the U.S.

Adamjets I like a lot of your items for sale but I will not be gouged.
