Kaleb Posted January 3, 2020 Posted January 3, 2020 I am getting out of the model car hobby. I have 20 New cans of Tamiya gray primer and 11 new cans of the white. I know there is no selling allowed, but I’m unsure of where to sell these besides eBay and that’s a hassle.
High octane Posted January 3, 2020 Posted January 3, 2020 Take them to your local swap meet and sell them there, or maybe at your local model car club meeting.
kitbash1 Posted January 3, 2020 Posted January 3, 2020 Maybe you could make a spread sheet and offer copies to any one here who wants one. Your not selling just offering a kit list.

That's assuming either exists in his particular area, which is not always the case. It's not like there's a modeling club on every corner. I know for a fact that there is only one scale modelers club in NYC, The Brooklyn Plastic Modelers Society, and it's located in the middle of Downtown Nowhere. Local swap meets/flea markets aren't always an option for buying or selling model-related items because a majority of the stuff sold is junk. Unlike some of the luckier forum members who've scored some styrene loot at these events, I've only seen designer keffiyehs and overpriced "vintage" Remington typewriters with missing hammers.
Tom Geiger Posted January 5, 2020 Posted January 5, 2020 Put the paint on Craig's List. Someone will buy it all! I wouldn't try to sell on-line as you it only can be shipped ground freight.
Kaleb Posted January 12, 2020 Author Posted January 12, 2020 Apparently I didn’t get my notices. I would like to sell it all at once. I am busy and don’t have time to ship one at a time. I will check to see if the model car club is still in existence if it doesn’t sell here. They all fit in a large flat rate box, so shipping Is fairly low considering the weight.
tbill Posted January 12, 2020 Posted January 12, 2020 I know selling here isn’t permitted, but, what are you looking to get for the bunch? I know it isn’t cheap, but if a price is offered, maybe someone will PM you with an acceptable offer?

I had never even heard of it until just now! You’d think there would be ONE model related thing to attend that’s actually somewhere easy to get to in the city. I’m in Bensonhurst so I’m CLOSER, but it’s still 90 minutes from here using the MightTakeAwhile
SfanGoch Posted January 12, 2020 Posted January 12, 2020 I hear you, man. It's a two bus, one hour trip from Beach 116th St. in Rockaway Park for me. Even driving there takes almost an hour, depending on the traffic (only 8 miles one way via Marine Parkway Bridge ?).
OldNYJim Posted January 12, 2020 Posted January 12, 2020 Ooof, yeah, that’s a rough commute - probably not too fun trying to get back after the meeting ends too with a late night service
Tom Geiger Posted January 12, 2020 Posted January 12, 2020 (edited) Tri-State Scale Model Car Club meets in Perth Amboy, NJ which is right off the Outerbridge Crossing. We are also walking distance from Perth Amboy train station. info at tssmcc.com Edited January 12, 2020 by Tom Geiger
