JShow Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 Now that Hattons are winding down, do people here have another retailer for Oxford Diecast models they'd recommend? One that can accommodate overseas customers? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cass7117 Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 It's tricky as Hattons were far and away the best for OD. Kernow seem to have most of the range, and Gaugemaster too but I always have difficulty with their website. I'm not sure about overseas customers though. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
64F Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 Do any other Oxford dealers offer a trunk option? Hattons were ideal because you could pre-order and effectively get free postage once something larger came into stock, whereas otherwise you'd be forever having to pay postage for individual pre-ordered vehicles. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Hattons is unique in that regard. Postage is become a limiting factor for overseas modellers of the UK scene. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Harvey Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 The trunk idea does exist in the diecast world but the one I am aware of (Modelmatic) is a 1/64 specialist and does not stock Oxford Diecast. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMJ Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 For those in main land Europe it might be worth looking at one of the traders in Eire. The other option might be to turn your hobby into a business and you become a retailer - don't need a shop as online is enough. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
