A Fixture
Back in June I was fortunate enough to win FOTM, the prize that month was offered by Jinkoo Park. Once results were announced at the start of August Kev messaged Jinkoo to say I would be in touch to discuss which kit I would like. The initial response from a Jinkoo was positive, after a delay, saying please advise which kit you would like and your address. Nothing arrived. Kev and I have both tried to communicate with him on many occasions now. Rarely we receive any form of acknowledgement or response if we do we it’s along the lines of, “I will mail you” if I have messaged him or “I will message you” if I have emailed him, “it’s out of stock” although the site still accepts orders with no out of stock message, or, “it’s being recast”.
In summary 4 months later I have revived nothing from him and still not had a proper reply from him.
looking at his FB page it appears other people have had issues with him, I made some enquires and found that he has not been paying service providers to him either.
Whilst browsing the internet I found that he has a distributor in Hungary, Bigbear Miniatures run by Gabor Gurzo, please see separate post, I contacted Gabor to see if he had stock of the particular kit as Jinkoo had told me there was no stock. Gabor confirmed he had stock and asked if I wanted to order. I explained why I was asking. He immediately asked for my details and today the kit has arrived from his stock in Hungary.
The vast majority of people in our hobby community are friendly, kind, honest and helpful so on the rare occasion I find someone who isn’t they really stand out for the wrong reasons. I really don’t think we need people like Jinkoo Park in our community.
