T55a

Has anyone found the Tamiya T55A cheaper than $50.00. I am tired of taking out home equity loans just for one model.

Is it that expensive overseas???
The LIST PRICE is only 3300 yen here in Japan. That’s about 28 bucks at current exchange rates.
Is this kit being distributed by Tamiya USA? And it’s still that expensive?
Sheesh!

Here is the online store I deal with…

I have also seen them cheaper on eBay. I have dealt with this person before and they have one. It’s coming from overseas so, if you don’t mind paying the lower shipping cost…

Fifty bucks is–like–alot, right? Just kidding.

About the cheapest I’ve seen the Tamiya T-55 is at Hobbyland for $35.99.

I know Hobbylink Japan may have it cheaper, but shipping charges would bring it very close to what Hobbyland is selling it for. Would be interested to know if it’s being sold a lot cheaper anywhere else!

Hope this helps.

Hey when you just lost your job because of emergency surgery and your idiot of a boss hire’s someone to replace you and says he couldn’t wait the six weeks that I was going to be out, $5.00 is a lot.

Whew!! thanks for letting me vent.
