Who distributes PSC in the USA?
I am specifically looking for British 15mm Cromwell and Sherman Firefly tanks, but the WarStore and Sgt Major are out of stock.
Does anyone else carry them? I "need" them in about a month.

Nobleknight games carries thrm

Brookhurst Hobbies carries PSC, and it looks like they have what you're looking for (Fireflies are listed as "EASY ASSEMBLY SHERMAN M4A4 AND FIREFLY" under the American 15mm section.

V/R,

The Michigan Toy Soldier Company carries the line. You would have to call them to see if they have them in stock.

Hard to beat NWS-Online when it comes to price, even with shipping.

And, as mentioned, the Firefly is listed under the American section here as well. Can ask if in stock, very prompt answers!

FRP Games is another source for PSC.

John, loads of dealers and flea marketeers have PSC at Historicon. You should have your droog pick some up for you there and save the shipping.

Tgunner07 Jul 2015 10:29 a.m. PST

Second on NWS. The price is great and shipping is reasonable.

Marc33594 Supporting Member of TMP07 Jul 2015 12:10 p.m. PST

I ordered two boxes of PSC items from NWS in my first order with them and shipping was, I believe, $5.95 USD. Cost for Firefly and for Cromwell each $19.99 USD. So delivered you are talking about around $23 USD a box (providing in stock). Compare that with cost even at the flea market :)

On my last order, which was 3 PSC boxes, 12 Zvezda 1/100th models and some decals shipping was $17.50 USD. If you can beat it I commend you.

nazrat07 Jul 2015 1:50 p.m. PST

Wow, virtually every place I order from in the US charges no more than around six bucks no matter how big the package is. It's hard to believe they charge shipping on every box of models you order. Like it if you wish, but that is a true example of postage rip-off to me!

Marc33594 Supporting Member of TMP07 Jul 2015 2:24 p.m. PST

He charges exactly what the post office charges. And I still challenge you to find any cheaper even when you throw in postage. My last order was $126.33 USD with shipping. From another well known vendor here (they do give excellent service as well) who offers a discount and flat rate shipping no matter how big the order would have been $149.78 USD :)

And he will match or beat any legitimate offer to include the item and shipping.

Besides, we can argue over it over a beer at Historicon! Still hoping to get in your game perhaps thursday night!

Thanks for the advice. I ordered from NWS last night.

NWS Wargaming Store16 Jul 2015 6:47 a.m. PST

Hi, just a quick thanks for any orders placed and for the support.

As a note, I do not attempt to profit on shipping and I keep my rates transparent – not slid under the rug of higher priced items to compensate. I recheck every shipment that goes out and any overages are credited. I have all of this information stated on my store information page. I will also attempt to match or beat ANY competitor lower total including any rewards, shipping rates, discounts, etc..whenever possible.

If there are ever any questions please do not hesitate to contact me at anytime.

Take care friends.

Any idea why the spray paints are becoming hard to get?

LORDGHEE21 Nov 2016 1:47 p.m. PST

In Ap 2016 I ordered one platoon each Sherman M4A3 and one Ger. Pz. IV from NWS, got them for around $24 USD $25 USD through their store on ebay.
I only hope PSC 'upgrades' the US tank track sections to the one piece upgrades they did for the Ger. and Soviet T34 sets.
