groundimpact Posted September 28, 2023 Share Posted September 28, 2023 Hi just ordered a kit from billkits, made payment via paypal to email bill provided . Since ordering and paying I've had no reply to emails or a receipt for the payment made. Just wondering is this normal for buying from Bill.. Little concerned with no response to the emails Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J D 8 Posted September 28, 2023 Share Posted September 28, 2023 How long since order? Probably just have kit turn up if recent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kc Posted September 28, 2023 Share Posted September 28, 2023 Billkits give their phone number on the website so make a phone call. However I found that this week many firms are on holiday so maybe he is too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denis Watkins Posted September 28, 2023 Share Posted September 28, 2023 Check your paypal account Just to see, as your payment may be still " Pending " Meaning, he hasn't got the money yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kc Posted September 28, 2023 Share Posted September 28, 2023 Good to hear that the kit will be arriving soon. I am sure the forum members would like details of what the kit is like and what you actually get for the money. £97.50 according to the website- which is pretty good nowadays for a 60 inch model kit. Several other 60 inch kits at the same price too plus 36 inch fun flier at £62.50. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groundimpact Posted September 28, 2023 Author Share Posted September 28, 2023 Yes will post some stuff about the kit when it arrives, its seems great value as Ive been after a pawnee for a while. I was considering building one from a plan I have but with the kit having foams wings I think it mite take a bit of a bash ( im rusty) compared to built up wings.

Andy J Posted October 6, 2023 Share Posted October 6, 2023 Had never heard of Billkits before but given the cost and interesting models on offer, surprised that I have never come across his web site before. Obviously he needs to do a bit of advertising on this site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groundimpact Posted October 6, 2023 Author Share Posted October 6, 2023 Yes the Kit is quite good value all parts are well cut and almost everything is provided to complete the model (obviously not electronics etc) pushrods horns and pre formed undercarriage and any vac forms needed. Bill is very good at answering questions promptly, the kit arrives very well packaged (strong box, bubble wrap and noodles). My kit was short of the wheels of which bill added a £5 note to compensate also Bill included a note to say the cowl will be send later as he's waiting on some vac form plastic, all good with me.
