Russian Web Site

[Hondamax]

Hi All,

I've seen the following web site http://naydinel.narod.ru/ which has some interesting models, particularly the Russian submarines in 1:200 and 1:300. It looks like they can be downloaded (as .JPGs), but I've noticed that one file of every set of the model files is actually missing (errors 404).

I've tried using the email link on the site to ask whether they are available for purchase, and have had no response.

Any one else experienced this problem, or can help me get to the files?

That's because they are models for sale! Several of the links open to a zip file which contains a microsoft word document in Russian titled Price.Doc...

From the bit of fairly poor Russian that I can read I don't think there are any free models on that site.

Difficult.... The prices are quoted in Roubles and the address for them is in Moscow. I think you really need to look elsewhere. There is no indication that they will sell outside of Russia. Possibly because they don't realise that there would be a market for their models or possibly because they don't want to.

Most of the models seem to be listed as 40 Roubles each. If you want it... here's their address, Good Luck because I really don't think that there is any way of buying these models easily:
