Hello All,

Recently I spotted monthly subscription to build a 1/8 Citroen C4 WRC on the French version of Deagostini, Altaya.fr.

https://www.altaya.fr/modelisme-maquette/citroen-c...

Problem is they don't ship internationally and you can't order unless you have a french address. Now I'm aware there are parcel forwarders but not sure if there's a way to get these subscription magazines every month.

Does anyone know of any solution to this? I can't imagine Deagostini will market the C4 as its probably a fairly small market. I already missed out on the two Mclaren F1 cars and kinda would love this to make up for it.

There is no trade tariff preventing the publisher exporting the magazine directly to you.

However you can bet that there will be more hassle for them to make it worth their while. I suggest that the only practical solution is to approach the publisher directly.
