We're NOT pefrect ;)
You all know that, here at SpotModel, we're all tall, handsome, with clear blue eyes, we like both cars and bikes, we build several models every day, and we airbrush freehand with both hands and without even using masking tape. You may think: they're perfect!!Nothing farther :) If we were, we wouldn't have to stop delivering your orders three days a year to recheck our warehouse inventory. The number of references we're selling keeps growing non-stop, and we have to make a mandatory pause to place new shelves, reorder all the materials, and double check our stock to make sure everything is right and up to date.
So during these three days we will NOT be shipping your parcels, although you can of course keep placing your orders on the website and they will be sent first time on monday morning.
While we're at it, you can have a look at the latest products just arrived, such as the recently announced Racing Decals 43 and Reji decals for the Lamborghini LP670, the MP4-13C, the Fabia and the WRC Peugeots. Other freshly baked beauties are some new Fujimi kits, several references from Zero Paints, and the Lotus Ford Type 78 from Tameo.
Thank you very much to let us search for pefrection :D
