Hey mate! How are you doing? I found out that you own the Cessna O-2A Skymaster in 1:48 scale, by Testors. Would you by any chance consider selling the kit? I feel in dept for your kind gesture regardign the decals and I was looking into your stash in order to buy something and eventually accept some money! I'm so close completing my NAVY collection!

Hey my friend, no problem, I can sell that kit without any problem 😉 .
I just need to check if kit is complete and check IF the seats included are the same as the Reims-Cessna 337 version as I plan to convert the ICM to a portuguese one . If they are similars, I will do a mold with silicone rubber and copies with resin 😉 . Don't feel obligated for the decals, I had no use for this one and it will help you 🙂 . Nice for your collection 🙂 . By the way, Greece offered me an amazing new project by buying French Rafale 😉 . Let's hope they will wear the ghost camo of our F-16

You could go with the Aegean Ghost anyways!!!! I prefer the F-16 camo to the Μirage 2000. Some guys have already photoshopped the camos on the Rafales and they look great!

Mirage 2000 kept it's french camo scheme . I don't even have to see, I just have to imagine a Rafale with a Aegean ghost camo 😉 . Aegean ghost camo is already great on F-16 and Phantom ( on Mirage F1 too 😉 ), the Rafale is one of the most beautiful plane ( my point of view wich is- of course- subjective ) . The most beautiful camo on the most beautiful plane : winning combo 🙂

So, how much will you be asking for the Cessna?

Lol, I'm really a bad seller, I completely forgot . I'd say 5€ postage costs not included . For the postage, I will look if there's another option less expensive than belgian post as they are excessively expensive for a poor service quality .

OK then! I will wait! Actually can't wait to get the kit in my hands!!! And by the way you're an excellent seller! You raise the tension!!!

Hi mate, I looked for the postage costs to Greece .. Bpost : 32,8€ DPD:35€ Mondial Relay : doesn't deliver packages to Greece GLS : doesn't deliver to Greece DHL : cheapest option +60€ UPS : 19,35€ wich is the cheapest . I'm terribly annoyed by such postage costs . Because even with UPS, it will cost 25€ wich is 5 € cheaper than average price of the ICM Skymaster ( +-30€ ) . And the ICM kit is infinitely better than the Testor/Italeri . Frankly, my best advice is to drop the Testor and buy the ICM , for 5€ more, it's what I'd do . And honestly, I'd prefer as the Testor kit isn't worth 25€ ( wich would be the price postage costs included ) I told you I'm a bad seller mainly because I give advices against my own interest, but for the buyer's interest 😉 . And don't worry for that, you have no obligation 🙂

First: I just got the decals! Thank you so much for that!!! i feel really obligated! And I need to find a way to re-pay.

Second: I will hold on to the purchase at the moment and wait until the ICM comes out and buy it then which makes much more sense in a way. On the other hand, if you come and visit home land, you could bring it over with you!!! hahaha That's another option!

First : good news, it came quickly to you . Don't feel obligated, as I told you : a Mythos or a coffee is fine 😉 . You have been happy to get the decals and it will make me happy to get a beer or a coffee . For me it seems fair
Second: that's the right choice to do . The ICM kit is already available almost everywhere 😉 . I had that idea too to bring it with me when coming homeland, the only issue is : when will it be possible with the covid crisis . Living in Belgium, we have a high number of infected and as belgian testing is a true joke ( lack of materials, bad quality tests and so on ) I don't want to take the risk of coming to my country and infect Greek poeple due to a bad quality testing ( I haven't done it until now ) . Same goes for the country of my wife ( Portugal ), all her family lives there and we usually go there twice a year but this year, we will have to skip it 🙁 for the same reason we don't go to Greece .

Man, it is really a mess everywhere. Greece has no IC beds anymore and the news are so confusing. We're locked up again and we only do the basics.We can go out only by texting specific code numbers (1 for doctor, 2 public services etc...)

Yes, I've read it . There was so few deads during the first wave (+-200) and the amount increased incredibly during the second wave (4000+ as far as I know ), I have heard during the first wave Greeks medics were using hydroxychloroquin combined with an antibiotic with good results as treatment as soon as poeple was known to be infected . That's what i feared with the second wave , the lack of IC beds as hospitals aren't financially healthy ( especially public ones ) and as the private hospitals request a " fakelaki" . Belgium is in a partial lockdown too ( But we can go out without texting or authorisation ) with ridiculous decisions like schools open and kids going in, lot of poeple using the public transportation at the same time ( at peak hours, the public transportations are completely full and so on ... You will not be very surprised Belgium reached 17703 deads due to covid ... In relative value, it's 0,16% of belgian poeple and the worlwide relative value is 0,02% ...So you see Belgium is THE country to avoid .
