george 53 Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 Actually Steve, i don't think he's out of buisness, just kinda backed up. Give him some time to get his stuff together, and I'm sure you'll be able to order it directly from him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wayne Buck Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 (edited) Actually Steve, i don't think he's out of buisness, just kinda backed up. Give him some time to get his stuff together, and I'm sure you'll be able to order it directly from him. Yep, like George said, he's just backed up on orders AFAIK. He seems to really care about his customers and is very honest (unlike a small percentage of casters out there, who will take your order and money, ship you the product 6 months later, or when they feel like getting around to it, ...or even at all! I won't mention any names here). I can vouch for his Camaro conversion kits though. When the first ones came out, I ordered the 74-77 conversion kit and an extra "high spoiler" from him. He actually emailed me to tell me he was a bit backed up, but I did get my parts and they fit & look great! Now, I just have to finish the darn thing!

Sam Cates Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 Got myself one of those kits as well, freakin' sweet, but I too need to get going on it again, building a replica of my 1:1 '74. Just give him some time, he has some great stuff but it may take a while to catch up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darin Bastedo Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 I hate to be the bearer of bad news but Dencon has left a lot modeler twisting in the wind waiting for product, both as Dencon, and before when he was lookout deigns. I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for him to get going again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MustangDreams Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 I dont understand why resin makers don't have product in there inventory ready to ship. Will it go bad? if it is on a shelf or in a bag? After all isn't that how Dencon got into truble in the first place not being able to fill orders? or is there something I'm missing here?

Darin Bastedo Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 depending on how extensive your catalog is, it could be very expensive to maintain an inventory. Replicas and Miniatures for instance has over 450 products in their line-up and never knows what will be ordered. The trick is to be financially respnsible and use the money taken in to fill orders and order materials and then count the profit. unfortunately some use the money before filling orders hoping that they will be able to make it up somewhere and when that doesn't happen they can't fill the order or refund the money, and get deeper in the hole.

MustangDreams Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 Hey Darin Thanks for the info Buddy! I guess it was something I was missing, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Most Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 Some casters do keep a stock of their more common parts, but even then, it is sometimes a crapshoot- maybe that part that's been selling like hotcakes for the last six months will be collecting dust all of a sudden, and some other part that wasn't as popular will see more demand. Some of these casters sell their products to second parties such as STAR Models or hobby shops- if you're worried about a long wait it is never a bad idea to check out such a source and see if they have that casters part in stock.

MustangDreams Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 (edited) Do you think he will be back? after all there are a lot of people that didn't get there orders or money back. Edited December 14, 2011 by MustangDreams Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
