Thanks

If needs be, have it posted to me and I will forward it unopened to you. (PM me if you need to take me up on this offer.)

Thanks Idris, the guy finally decided to ship it to the US. the shipping cost was a bit high...a little over $22.00

but thanks again.

Have it first sent to Germany for a set of Windows GPW......LOL kwakers The Devil made me do it!
A very nice variation with BPW. I think these last 23C versions were kept in England while the U.S. received the new yellow 23C Caravans instead. kwakers

Try messaging the guy about the postage costs when you receive the model, I do this occasionally and most sellers are so afraid of bad feedback they will refund the balance. Any well packaged single 1-75 model should come in under 100g, which with Royal Mail makes £3.50 postage. Another £5 for tracking gives you £8.50 which at £1 to $1.55 is around $13. Maybe he has insured it well........
