Society Stores |
Remember - you HAVE TO BE A MEMBER to purchase from the Society stores, of course the rest of you can browse the summary below and see what you are missing, before filling in our membership form.
Members can get detailed information on how to order and fill out an order form directly via the members pages.
Society policy is now to concentrate on basic essentials needed for P4
modelling as well as specialised items not always stocked by the trade. Many of the items
which are readily available from trade sources or have been very slow moving are not being restocked.
Check the links page and hosted suppliers pages for alternative suppliers.
