Good evening folks,

I'm going to be honest with you all...

I'm evaluating the possibility of setting up a shop to sell die-cast models which will include cars. I'd really like to gauge what the market is like in the UK, and so far no such material has ever been produced for our domestic market.

I would therefore be very keen to hear from any of you who collect or buy the occasional die-cast model to drop me an email if you would be happy to answer a small survey (10 questions only).

So there you go, I've been honest and up front about my request, and I feel this will be of huge benefit to me and I'd like to take this opportunity in thanking you for your cooperation in advance.

Kindest regards

Steve West.

Please email me at: stevewest_uk2001@yahoo.com and I'll reply with the questions (remember only 10).

Thank you all to those who have replied. I shall send out the questions over this weekend.

Thank you all again.

Thanks to everyone who has replied and filled in the questionaire.

I really need some more though to add weight to the results, so if you know of friends or work colleagues who buy die-cast model cars please ask them to email me and I shall forward them the survey.

The results so far are very promising, and your comments reinforce my own personal views and I promise to provide a service you can all be happy with

Thank you again

Steve.

Are there any more of you out there who collect, or even just the occasional model car who can really help me in answering some very short questions. The feedback I've had back already is very good, but in order to add weight to the results I do need some more, so please, please send me an email and I'll forward the survey to you.

Thank you again for your co-operation folks

Send me your questions. Where are you likely to be based? Have you considered trading at die cast (toy) fairs. That's where I do all of my buying.
