Hi there.

Yes i am the seller.

I have nothing to hide guys nor do i try and con or deceive people for money or anything else.

I restore these models so people who may not be able to afford the rare versions in there collection can have these restored/repainted/fake/restoration models as shelf fillers instead.

I put on my auction NOT ORIGINAL and RESTORED so no buys can be mistaken at all and if i get models or have model i belive have been tampered with or altered in anyway thats not by myself i will say this.

If i belive a model i got and have is untouched and all original i wall also states this i DO NOT deceive or con no people.

Thanks for your time in reading this and hope you all understand thanks.

Thank you for the clarification. However, I would reiterate that, in English, an item cannot be restored to be something it never was. It is then a solely a REPRODUCTION (or fake - see my previous post).
To continue to claim that these models are restorations is therefore simply an abuse of the language.

It is unfortunite that the statement used by so many collectors who do rebuild models..''it has been restored'' has become a very misleading statement and ''Idris'' has pointed out the actual fact behind 'Restored', so yes, if you continue to use 'Restored' in your sales text I would add a clarification as to what you mean by restored I.E. it has been rebuilt to a factory finish.

I think you mean "...it has been rebuilt to a non-original factory finish".
