As a person new to collecting, is JetCollector the best there is?

[Andres Coll]

So, I'm new to collecting and I have 5 models so far. The first one I got off the GeminiJets website. The model, an American Eagle retro E170, arrived fine, but when I went shopping again, I realized that there are other sites that offer more selection and are cheaper. I found JetCollectors had a good variety and good prices, so I ordered 4 models from them, and they came in great condition and packed well with way too many packing peanuts. Now I'm looking for new stuff again. Should I stick with JetCollectors or try a new site?

Avoid Waffle if you can, the owner is extremely rude and unpleasant guy to deal with if something goes bad.

I don't agree with this. He is always fair and straight, never had any issue with him. I bought over 100 models from his store, there were about 5 or 6 times the plane come with defect and he arranged new exchange models within a day. Twice there were missing antennas and he literally shipped two antennas to me to place it on. Waffle is great and safe to buy. Also fair prices (like many new NG and Phoenix are still at $53.95 unlike many other retailers who already sell them in the 60s).

You know there are tons of people who had a terrible experience when dealing with him, right?

In the past maybe, but in recent times (past 3 years onward) I think more and more people have expressed pleasant experiences with him.
