MOGUL

Not really an issue any more, as our new warehouse is a whopper that can pump out in the hundreds orders a day when in campaign mode.. So the difference between the start of the queue, and the bottom, is in hours not days

Nothing to see here folks

No doubt a few pints of Beamish or Murphys were consumed? Either that or a bad case of insomnia!

Just spoke to Mark, and he has a big re-stock from oxford including the Dublin Airport landrovers and the nice shunting tractors inbound, and they should hopefully be in before the end of the month(which ties in nicelty with payday).. Thought I would share here in case anyone wants to buy them local and save on the grief of shipping from the UK post Brexit

Lots and lots of loveliness should be up there really soon..........

Just plucking out these posts, as they illustrate a very important point.. The perception of people who haven’t bought the brand is one of poor QC etc, whereas the lived experience of people who bought Heljan's products is more favourable.. Were all past Heljan products perfect? No but they have some very fine models in the range that with a little bit of love and attention from the Accurascale team will remain available and provide in many instances the only OO RTR model of their prototype.. The high prices certainly didn’t help matters, but were in part a symptom of Heljan’s distribution chain. From my own perspective, I have a Heljan BOC gas tanker which is an excellent model along with a full rake of IRM/Heljan Esso tanks. Will I be buying more based on what I've seen so far, certainly, just as soon as I can get the stock I’m after into the warehouse!

Our system is set up to send invoices on the due date, so not sure how you would have got sent an invoice with a due date of 31st March unless you requested it, or one of the team sent it.. Feel free to drop us an email on support with the order no to look into it for you

The "stock remaining" flags will only work with in stock items, and don't work for pre-orders unfortunately.. Those are a hard limit input into the system when we place the PO with the factory(at which point we are commited to the numbers), and once it's reached the system stops taking in orders.. From a quick check on our side, it looks like most coaches aren't far away from being sold now either, with some down to the last 1 or 2 units available to pre-order

Likely a park and ride style operation like M3 parkway, on the Northern cross route would make the most sense.. There seems to be very little left of the Boyne road branch, past the newfoundwell sidings that were used to load Ballast in the 90s.. This was to access Irish Cement(now premier periclase) rather than Drogheda port though.. Tom Roe's never had rail access

That was the MED's.. They were dumped in a Quarry near Crumlin Even if that Class 70 is still there, there would like be very little of it left.. 25+ years in sea air, would be a pile of rust with brambles growing out of it by now

Are you using a VPN that could be "spoofing" the website into thinking you are in Austria rather than Germany? Regardless of what pricing you see, once you get to the checkout and enter a shipping address, the correct shipping and VAT rate will be applied anyway..

It’s a charge of €3 on low value parcels, in lieu of customs duty.. We don’t use the low value procedure, we use a mix of IOSS and DDP depending on the order value.. With a 0% rated product like railway models, duty isn’t an issue, just VAT

IRM/Accurascale orders won't be affected.. Since the removal of the €22 import VAT exemption back in 2021, all orders arriving in Ireland attract VAT, even if they are duty free(like Railway models are). So we put a good bit of work into full VAT paid shipping for EU orders with our fulfillment provider before we moved the IRM fulfillment over to the UK, which means we don't rely on the low value order loopholes.. Those loopholes were always likely to be closed off once cross border e-commerce, particularly from China(the likes of Alibaba, Shein and Temu) took off and started affecting European business and employment.. This is just the next step towards that happening, similar to Trump removing the De minimis in the US..

Looks like the bould Craig!
