Macs Modeling

It is with a heavy heart I have to inform you, the end of an era is here. Macs Modeling is closing. :(
There are multiple reasons for this: The cost of buying items from Japan has increased as has Shipping, plus domestic and International shipping from me has become too expensive.
We have lost a lot of our International customers due to the shipping costs.
Also many modelers are buying direct from manufacturers and distributors.
I am having to move again. My lease is not going to be renewed. Have to be out by the end of July.
The more you buy the less I have to move.
Everything in the store is being sold at 20% discount, all reference material is 25% off.

Arizona Racing Models LLC is continuing, as these are parts I manufacture and don't have to buy/import.

I may get time to build some models for myself again. :)

Thank you everyone for your support over the years.

Cheers,
Mac

Sorry to hear this Mac. As has already been mentioned, you were always great to deal with. You were upfront and honest at all times. Wishing you well in the future.

Sad news my friend. I wish i could still buy from you, because you are one of the few honest seller out there. It’s been a real pleasure to buy from you and will never forget the meet up in Brussels. Also sad that you have to move again, but i know you will get back on your feet and find a new house. Take good care buddy and maybe we see eachother again😃

I've always liked doing business with you. Mac, you are one of those rare people who have always been honest and trustworthy. It's a pity to lose you and your great shop. We will miss the large selection, great prices, fast and safe deliveries. I hope for some great projects from you, because where should we get these grandiose upgrade sets for the Mclaren M 23 , your brake discs and alloy wheels. I'm thinking about the 312T4 rim set. The best you can get for it. I hope you get back on your feet and can get nice things from you. Keep your fingers crossed that everything goes well for you.
Greetings Martin Seelos
