David is retiring and SBX is closing


Valerie and David have decided that this is the time for them to start a welcome retirement.
Unfortunately this means that, with immediate effect SBX Models will be closing for all business.

All current orders for items that are in stock either with us or with our main suppliers will be fulfilled as soon as possible.
We will be cancelling all other orders for future releases and out of stock items.
We will be maintaining an e-mail address for at least 30 days should you have any queries or questions (please use the contact link at the bottom of this page).

We would like to thank all of our internet and mail order customers for their business over the years.
We have built up some very good relationships with many regular customers throughout the world
and we are sorry to see that contact go. However, with both of us over retirement age we are looking
forward to some quieter times together.

Please note that David will be continuing with his Modelling Blog so that will be an opportunity to keep in touch.

Great News!

We have recently upgraded our web site to enable us to offer vouchers for special offers on line.

Make sure that you have our e-mails 'white listed' by your Spam filter because, shortly,
we will begin sending regular e-mails with special offers on our web site.
These offers will be for short terms onlyand will require that you enter a voucher code to get them.

Make sure you save our e-mails to keep the voucher codes to hand.

These special offers will also be posted here and onto our Twitter feed.

Please note that if you prefer to call us, you can give us the code over the telephone.

All of our special offers will have time constraints so be sure that you take note of the validity.

Wide range of products
Our computer system is connected directly to our two main suppliers systems and, thus, we are able
to offer the widest range of products. If we don't have it in stock, then we get deliveries nearly every
day of the week so we can obtain it very quickly. All of the products of our main suppliers are listed
on our web site and current availability is now displayed along with the item details as well as in your
basket.

You can, of course, order out of stock and future delivery items as our computerised ordering system
will make sure that these are shipped to you as soon as they come into stock. Please note that we do
not charge your card for these items until we actually ship them. As a policy, if you order these items
and pay by Paypal, we will issue a refund and contact you when the item becomes available and
request payment at that time.

Changes to postal charges

Postage Changes

We have managed to keep our ‘Postage Free’ policy going for the last 7 years or so but have been struggling recently to maintain it. The upcoming increases to 2nd Class post have made it impossible for us to maintain free or subsidised delivery.

We are sorry to tell you that, from 6th March 2012 our new postage charges will be as follows:

UK only - £2.00 per order
European Union - £3.00 per order
International - £6.00 per order.

All orders placed prior to this date will not be affected.

Please note that where we decide to send an order in multiple parcels we will only charge a single postage fee.

The good news is that as a result of charging for postage, we will be able to re-inforce the packages better.
David and Valerie
