EMC-issue......
Dear forum-members,
it seems that today's response about EMC-models has not been posted, so I will write another one:
it seems that my response to Mr. Lockyer's post damaged some people's idea about EMC-models.
Mr. Mikhail Bashmashnikov writes that I am being pessimistic, well, that's something one can argue about.
I think I am not pessimistic, I am telling my viewpoint.
Mikhail and I go back quite some years and I have always been honest with him and I am very pleased with the way he handles things.
He knows I am very pleased with his (Historic Line) and EMC's models.
Personally I favor his Chryslers above all, but again, that's my opinion (no harm intended !)
Then Mr. Buck says : "regardless of the negative, and rather inaccurate comments written and previously posted by a forum 43 member".
I am curious who he is referring to, but these comments can not be about me, since I have bought only 15 EMC-models over the years (not all from Mr. Bashmashnikov) and 3 (come to think about it: 4 !) of them had problems.
So I think my opinion is worth some... 
Ending this I think I should get this straight:
I have always loved EMC-models and I probably will after this and in my opinion Mr. Bashmashnikov plays a great role in buying them from.
If something is wrong, he is the one to turn to.
He offers great service...

I didn't expect that discussion will roll over in New Year 2014.
I hope I have answered to you, Joop in private email.
If the word "pessimistic" hurts you please accept my apologies.May be better word was in this situation - "emotional".
Our "train" is moving forward... Right now I have 2 deadlines for 2 VIP (Very Important Projects) and really prefer do not spent much more time for needless posts but to spend a valuable time for building models...
Just want to repeat again, If somebody have a question regarding B&G models please contact me directly through email and I will be glad to solve any possible issues..
To Lloyd - I hope your statement would not build 2 different camps again with the discussion "what is the better - Chrysler or Cadillac '1903..." from B&G/EMC.
Happy New Year to All!

No, I have all EMC Cadillac models, and they are perfect. My comment strictly related to any item with a 26% issue/problem/failure/etc rate was questionable. We can move on.
