What? No P47?
Are you really going to eat $1,600 of amburgers for Memorial day? Wait a minute ... Memorial weekend ... selling WW2 memorabilia personal collection ... it's not patriotic! but it's a great capitalistic move.

Look at it this way, everyone wanted SO many P47s they sold out.

(or, everyone realized just how much of a pig the P47 really is and only made P38s)  :)

I  bought a couple of these off Bodhi in the past, I'd recommend dealing with him anytime.

Think I'm gonna go with Flatley's F-6F and Sinner's 262 this
time around.  I got the Nowotny Fw-190 last time and it's a beaut.

     Email otw soon as I get home Bodhi :)

Naw, I would never sell my personal collection.  THese are leftovers from an old business.  Sitting in the back of my shop taking up space.  Plus, I have a wedding coming up, so any extra loot is a help.

     1/48th scale diecast models, yes.  Very well done and about
9-10" wingspans.

Bodhi, you have enough stuff laying around that you should open an ebay store. You'd be surprised how much you can make, just set a $50 minimum on them and open a 2nd account with your wife bidding against them.

This is why I don't buy on EBAY.

I do fairly well on Ebay Airhead, but I do agree, there is a ton of corrupt bastages on there.  Thats why I do my research before buying to make sure I do not pay too much.

I would never expect you to Bodhi. I think you're a stand-up guy. I was just making a joke at Ebay's expense.

Sorry everybody, but I have an announcement.

The Bong P-38 and the Flately F6f are no longer for sale - I bought them!

If you're thinking about getting one or more of these, I'd highly suggest it.  These planes are beautiful, highly detailed, and you'll never find them at a better price than this!

I'me very pleased with the 2 I bought - If I had more money and space, I'd get more!

Think he's got 6 Flatley Hellcats, at least I hope that's what
that number on the left means as I've already sent the check ;)

He ships in original packaging, I have bought several from Bodhi and believe they would make it to you without damage.
