Milicast UK292 1/76 Resin WWII British Austin K2/YF 2 Ton GS Truck
The Austin K2 was a 2 Ton General Service truck which superseded the earlier open cabbed 30cwt K30 series most of which were lost with the BEF. It was a standard GS truck and was used for transporting loads. The K2 Chassis was also used for the Mann Egerton designed K2 Ambulance.
These models are imported from Milicast in the United Kingdom and are first quality.
Milicast question “I see several of
your Milicast products are of what appear to be the same items with different
part numbers and prices? Why and is there a difference?
Answer “Yes! Milicast has two different
lines which often represent the same model with a slightly different format.
First off is their “premier” line. The
best way to describe these is that they are intended for avid modelers and
diorama builders. They have more parts/casts, are slightly more fragile, take a
little more time to build, and usually (but not always) come with instructions.
Premier line part number prefixes include ACC, DBS, FIG, G, I, L, R, UK, US,
WAD, WWI, and Y.
Second is the “battlefield” line. These
are designed with the war-gamer in mind. Slightly less parts/casts, faster
build times, and slightly more durability (as more handling is expected for
gamers). The battlefield line models rarely come with instructions as their
assembly is usually self-explanatory. These are slightly less expensive than
the premier line as they require less effort (casts) to manufacture. While
designed for gamers, these models still make a gorgeous addition to any
diorama. Battlefield part number prefixes include BB, BG, BIT, BJ, BR, and BT.
Both the premier and battlefield lines
contain the exceptional detail and quality that you have come to expect from
Milicast.
Q. What’s with the plastic baggie and
the scribble?
A. That too:) Milicast keeps it downright simple when it comes to packaging-and I’m thinking you won’t find their products in Walmart as a result. That said, Milicast keeps their focus on the quality of their models rather than on that pretty wrapper you likely throw away on the others? And as long as they have been in business, I would suggest that their business model worksJ
International
Buyers – Please Note:
Import duties, taxes, and charges are not
included in the item price or shipping cost. These charges are the buyer's
responsibility.
Please check with your country's customs
office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to bidding or
buying.
Please note: I have no love of
import/export taxes or customs duties. That said, I pay mine and if your
country has them it is your responsibility to pay yours. Many sellers raise
their shipping or merchandise prices to offset the added expense caused by customs
returns when customers fail to pay or pick up their items from customs. I
refuse to penalize good customers for this-I simply block bad ones from
purchasing my goods in the future.
I combine shipping whenever possible to the same
address/eBay account unless otherwise requested.
Slower
method, but you see shipping
cost prior to paying: Order all of your items, DO NOT PAY, get combined
invoice from me, pay, then I ship.
Fastest
method-order all of your items, pay, I adjust your invoice for any overpayment
and ship immediately.
As a general rule (90+%
of the time) more items = significantly lower shipping costs per item.
