To be honest your best bet might be eBay. Other than that I have used diecastlegends in th epast with no problems at all.

I'm sure they won't stay in your favourites for long.

eBay is the best place, far cheaper and better service too smile

I'd almost given up hope of the traditional Xlegends.com sgging biggrin

I can only go by personal experience and have never had bad service from them.

I don't think it's the 'experience' issue (although they've screwed up my orders enough never to buy from them again!!) it's the price. They are probably the most expensive company to use and their sales tactics of increasing RRP before reducing is a little off too.

eBay will always be cheaper smile

I know this has been a touchy subject for you and I can sympathise to a degree, but the last item I bought from them, not a sale line, was cheaper than on eBay.

I'm not saying use them exclusively above all others but the constant sniping at them (generally, not singling you out) is contrary to my experiences over a number of years of dealing with them.
