Mercury1 Turbocharged May 30, 2017 Share May 30, 2017 He is quite pushy according to many people who went there before.I remember when they first opened at Wheelock it was like their pinacle moment, huge crowds great displays then after that things just turned from there. I ask him the price on the larger models then and he gave me the "you sure you can afford look?" There is another die cast shop below Adelphi but the prices is mind boggling easily 700 plus for a 1:18 scale forecast model 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is another die cast shop below Adelphi but the prices is mind boggling easily 700 plus for a 1:18 scale forecast model I only got that kind of attitude from the old boss only. He talked straight in the face whether I can afford to buy, and I bought one at the spot in front of him. The one at Adelphi sells those kind of high end hand build resin sealed models, on top of those normal models, which are more expensive. But I don't buy those kind of models, as they are sealed (non openable) and overpriced. I only collect those openable models. I'm a regular there too.

Porche 5th Gear June 8, 2017 Share June 8, 2017 It moved a few times after Specialist Centre was torn down. Not sure if it is still around.Last location was next to OG building, can't remember the building name. Grew up with the shop, but work and family take up most of my time. I usually shop online these days. I know the owner and the uncle from young. After my 2nd kid was born I didn't have time to go down for the shopping. Most of my toys are from there 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
