Beware dealing with Modellbau Pollack Germany
On the 7th March, I purchased a Dv8r on E-Bay from this company. Shipping was to all EU countries (Cyprus is in the EU) & they accepted my payment .
On the 20th March, They sent me this e-mail. Hello James Your DV8R come in to the end of March. After we received it I will send to you to Cyprus . Best regards Gerhard Pollack Today, I was told by E-Bay that Pollack had cancelled my purchase, the reason being, he does not deliver to Cyprus??? I have gone to extra expense, ordering the Dv8r landing gear package from Dreamworks USA. This will now be of no use to me, as Pollack (as far as I know) is the only European supplier of Dv8r's. I have e-mailed Todd at Dreamworks, asking if I can cancel my landing gear order. I can only hope this will salvage something from this mess. They continue to advertise Dv8r's on E-Bay Germany & shipping to all EU countries, but have now excluded Cyprus. This was edited today. I will never use this company again. |
RE: Beware dealing with Modellbau Pollack Germany
Well I'm not going to use them either. Thats just screwed up.
I hope they see this thread and realize how word gets around about a bad experience and how it can cost them lost business. |
RE: Beware dealing with Modellbau Pollack Germany
I would suspect that in terms of carriage, the cost to Cyprus is prohibitively more than to "mainland" EU. They probably only found that out just before shipping it!

RE: Beware dealing with Modellbau Pollack Germany
Yeah, but as a business, you've got to cut your losses if Cyprus wasn't excluded when Jim ordered it...:eek:

RE: Beware dealing with Modellbau Pollack Germany
This may be an oversight but when the same companies name crops up several times then it's a sign that something isn't right.
I posted a request for info on a particular model on RCU a while back. I received a PM from Modellbau Pollack directing me to a similar model they had for sale. When I returned their message asking for more info on their model they ignored me[sm=confused.gif] What was the point of that? |
RE: Beware dealing with Modellbau Pollack Germany
I always wanted the 1/4 scale Cessna 177 Cardinal they had. I wonder if it is still available.

I think, probably, Mr Pollack had to bring a Dv8R from the U.S. by air, just to make the deadline, which he promised Jim and found the cost prohibitive, so it was better for him to cancel the transaction. My question is: Are you allowed to do that on Ebay???? Chris |

RE: Beware dealing with Modellbau Pollack Germany
It's the same old story. Everyone has something to sell but some have nothing to deliver. As well as some things here today may be gone tomorrow. I'm having a heck of a time trying to find a Fox F-86 kit!!! I know there's one out there somewhere. :D

Look a smiley face as it was a joke Africa starts where the Pyrenees finnish! Back on topic.. I have to admit, I had to sell something on EB the other day and it cost a FORTUNE to send it to the buyer in italy... It seems to be the hardest part of selling on ebay.. every postal company/ package company has different prices, rules, speeds, insurance etc etc |

I just looked it up 799 call for prices HI Sorry for being offline the last couple of days, but to round off the week, my internet provider just went out of business & I am at an internet cafe in town. I tried Troy before I got the deal with Pollack, but the shipping cost as much as the jet. Pollack new very well the shipping cost to Cyprus, as he had just sent one a couple of weeks prior to me ordering mine. I will strike him off my list to do business with. The one person who was great to deal with, was Todd at Dreamworks. He cancelled my U/C order immediately when I told him the story. |

RE: Beware dealing with Modellbau Pollack Germany
Well,
as a german pilot and modelist I understand it´s angry to order a plane and than get the order rejected. The transport and duty costs are quite different when you send or get a plane from abroad. There are some countries in and outside the EU, where to you pay high transport costs, so it makes no sense to deal thereto. Pollack has learnt this lesson and I think if you really want a DVR8, there will be a chance to get it by a flying colleague outside of cypres, on a meting or something else. |
RE: Beware dealing with Modellbau Pollack Germany
Bull...t , the shipping cost for a dv8r from germany to cyprus via dhl are exact 54,80 EUR !!!
If pollack is not able to send it maybe i can help you to get one :D und Gerhard wenn du von deinen Kunden wissen willst was ich erzähl ... ruf mich doch einfach selber an und frag :D:D:D ich beiß nicht [8D] |
