POSTERT INSOLVENT

I won a small auction on ebay...the seller was postert itself...

they sent me the paying information
and the owner of the bank account was

"weidmann trust account for postert" !!!
that got me *****-eared, since such trust accounts are often used when liquidators run a company...

so i searched a litle and found this:

---------------
the guy "bi-beetle" wrote that he called postert because of a missing part in a delivered package and they told him that they couldn't get it for him because they're insolvent...

the guy "dieterb" confirmed it 2 posts below....

DAMN!!!
postert made such nice stuff for the Mazda models... let's hope the liquidator can save the company!

 

wow...wasnt matty a Postert distributor ??

 

afaik yes, maybe they didn't tell him? but normally they're commited to inform their direct business partners...

 

Aw, that sucks. I really wanted that Hero kit someday.

 

I wasn't in with them really well since I hadn't ordered anything from them yet. I had plans to do so. Maybe something good will come of this.

p..s. they were supposedly sending me new catalogs and an upgraded (lower) price list. I never got it after several requests.

 

hey matt, have you got some huge pics of the parts for the 3rd gen? maybe out of a catalogue?

 

i've got a full cd-rom of everything but the pics are no larger than whats on the website.
