What obvious reasons? If they exist from a legitimate source, then there should be no problem posting a url.

Most (if not all) of what they offer for sale are pirated scan copies of originally released material.
That's why.

Ruben, this is true

but John in his post makes reference to the dioramas Piano is looking for, and Glenn's question is valid, if they are available on a legit site, post the url

What Rick said. I am fully aware that Alice's models are mostly (if not entirely) pirated.

It appeared that John had found non-Alice sources for the dioramas in question but was not posting urls (unless I misunderstood his post).

My apologies, I misunderstood.

Indeed, if John found a valid link for the dioramas, it could be useful for many of us.

Sorry if there's been a misunderstanding. I was refering to a URL for Alice. Ptb's querie prompted me to Google them, and knowing the name was dropped by AliBaba I was surprised to find that someone was still actively trading under the name. I found no other source for the dioramas though.

I have done some searches as well with no luck.

Maybe try DeviantArt.

Thanks, the website's "shopping bag" can't be used. (???) Which led me to believe what I've read on this post. (Not to be trusted)
My inquiry is not about the veracity of [link to pirate site edited]. but, are there other websites or "designers" to get the items I want.

Pianointhebackground - maybe someone can help, but you need to provide more details specifically about the model, otherwise searching the Internet is pretty pointless....

Kevin,

If you go to the link Piano provided in his last comment, you can see multiple backgrounds
I have not yet figured out who they might be from, but it does look like something that can be made by most people on the cheap

Store front, some type of pavement pattern, and you have your base.
There is even a shot of a nuclear explosion, maybe a good background for the Atomic Annie
