**** Short Set Runs!

I got my Russo Turkish War Russian Infantry and Artillery. I got my Russian cavalry (both sets) and I got Winter and Summer Turkish Infantry. Now I'm getting messages that Turkish Regular cavalry and Turkish artillery are "no longer available and will not be listed again" -from three dealers.

Second time this has happened.

Anyone know if there is a UK dealer online with the Turkish artillery sets (Hannants just sold their last -though its still listed)?

Cheers

Have you tried Harfields?

Re: **** Short Set Runs!

Hi.
Just checked and they have the cavalry so that's covered. Its the artillery that's the problem now!
THANKS for reminding me about Harfields!
Cheers

Your Welcome

Re: **** Short Set Runs!

Dear Terry,

it's not true what dealers were saying, all these sets are available for sale. All they have to do is just to contact us for shipment.
Please be guided accordingly.

Best regards,

Strelets

Hello.
Really? I'm stunned. Luckily, I've tracked down most of what I was looking for online but it took TWO weeks! Siege of Sevastapol out of luck with

Thanks for the information though.

Re: **** Short Set Runs!

Hi.
Based on what you wrote I contacted the dealers I usually buy from both online and at a store. They contacted their UK distributors and asked about ordering Boer Infantry in particular. They were all told Strelets have never sent re-stocks or informed them of re-stocks so they are classed as no longer in production.

Most stores use specific distributors in the UK or are part of larger chain of stores where a central office orders items.

If the sets are in continued production it might be a good idea for Strelets sales team to let UK distributors know what sets can be re-stocked.

I note two dealers in Europe say the same thing -no longer in production and, as far as the Boers go, I have found no sets online at all.

Terry

Re: **** Short Set Runs!

Dear Terry,

Foot Boers are indeed out of stock.
In your root message you mentioned other sets, that are still freely available, that's why we interfered.
Best regards,
