PICs: New 1983 Cadillac Presidential Limousine R. Reagan!
David Sinclairs news letter says, it is built by True Scale Miniatures(?) and limited to 500 pieces.
True Scale have updatet their web site, but this Cadillac is not listet. But many Rolls Royces and a 1967 Impala 4door Patty!

Search for it on Ebay.
The seller sold one for over $200 last week, and now has them at Buy It Now for $155.00. Feel pity for the winner of that auction...

Do you think it was been a real buyer?

Has anyone else had problems with this seller?
I have personally received from this seller (pb_scalemodels) the model MC 1949 Cadillac Sedanet without the photo-etched inscription on one of wings. He asserted that the model is in mint condition. I can't get an absent detail from he some months already. It not a trifle for such expensive model!

Problem with seller
After I informed this seller (Petr) immediately regarding a defect with the model
he sold me, my communication and the polite follow-up e-mail were both
completely ignored. Only after I said I would send it back did he respond - with
ridiculous and groundless accusations of dishonesty. He then added: 'I am not
inclined to entertain your complaint at this time'. What arrogance!!

I had a similar experience with....
a seller from Australia. I never received the model, he never replied to my emails. I applied for a refund through Paypal and only then did I get a NASTY email, accusing me of fraud and deception. Personally, I think he never sent it. I got the refund only after filing for it. He would of course, never entertained the idea of refunding my money prior to Ebay/Paypal intervention. Why is this happening so frequently now?

problems with this seller (pb_scalemodels)
I also have a negative experience with this seller. I asked him two models: MERCEDES BENZ 380K SPORT ROADSTER and MERCEDES 500K ROADSTER COUPE CARACCIOLA. The first model was flawed, the second model was a different color order.

I had problem with this seller
I bought EMC mercedes 500K and it arrived with many missing
parts although the box was sealed and not opened by post
office or custom and his packaging was good, after
negotiations through ebay finally i returned it back and he
refunded the money but i lost the two times shipping cost
