Gentlemen:
Just curious, as I'm interested in this kit / model too. If the modeler elects the payment method, then he / she also pays extra for the shipping of the parts, which can potentially add up to 50+ separate shipping charges (Weeks spread out over a year) on top of the costs for the components, correct?
Also, on that note, it would appear to simply purchase the whole kit outright & work out financing arrangements from another source (monthly payments on credit cards, or through PayPal's payment program, bank, etc.).
So the differences between payment methods on a piecemeal basis & outright purchase of the whole kit is exponentially huge!
