Scale poll

 

开云体育

Your group owner here!? Hope everyone has been enjoying Backshop as I see that it gets a fair number of posts.

I just want to do a quick poll here to see who is doing what with the group.? Let your replies come to me directly instead of the open group. Use the questions below and just add your answers right after each one.

Can everyone state what their primary interests are, please:?
?
Start off with modeling and let me know the scale(s) you work with -

Do you primarily buy or sell (or both) model items -

If you are a historian and sell excess materials, what do you offer in general -
?
If you are a historian/collector, what is your primary interest -
?
Considering that since I created the Backshop group (way back when it was on Yahoo) and have had only one bad buyer/seller interaction report, I think it has been doing well for everyone.? How good has your experience been:
Selling -
Buying -
?
Thanks for your input!!!
