GreMir Models closing its website

With great sadness I have to announce that as of today, 6/24/18, GreMir Models is closing.
Until the end of 2018 I will keep helping everybody that purchased models from me, but after December 31, 2018, GreMir Models will cease to exist.

My highest regards to all the modelers.
Michael Krol

Well that sucks on a grand scale.

Never got around to purchasing the F-82's.

Guess I should do things when I intend to do them.

I will miss you and your service.

Herky,
All the designers I had a privilege to represent will keep designing. Most of their models are and will be offered in printed format through Polish publishers.

Michael, I checked you site and you said you're closing down due to tax law changes. If you're referring to the new laws on collecting sales tax on internet purchases, there are exemptions for smaller companies and low production items. Might be worth checking with your tax person if you have one.

That would be up to the designers.

GreMir was a low budget one man-operation. I have no will to fight it....

Sorry to hear that. Gremir has very long story and history. Michael Krol is very good guy, he bring future into paper modeling. He bring an excellent model into community. I used to have a website to sell my design too but like Michael said, it hard to operate with only one man. Now I bring a sell task to ecardmodels and sell some at etsy. Etsy is good for downloadable goods but you need an explosive advertise to make people can find your goods. It look like to find a needle in the ocean (this is Thai's proverb. When you cant find anything in big place we compare as you find a needle in the ocean)
