Kitlinx Newsletter - May 1, 2021

NEWS:

• As the homepage states, Kitlinx & Co acquired a substantial amount of inventory from the MMD/Squadron bankruptcy in Carrollton Texas. We wanted to pass on the savings to our customers. We are currently offering a "fire sale" to move some of that inventory. We acquired mostly paints, accessories, and models. This acquisition has increased our inventory by about 700+ SKUs.

• Traveling cross-country and integrating this huge inventory into our warehouse has slowed down our ability to answer emails. Please be patient as the backlog will be caught up this week

• Stay posted for more exciting announcements from Kitlinx! 

"Le Roi est mort, vive le Roi!"

Glad to see the US flag fly high!

Todd Kuran from Santa Clara, California built this Tamiya 1/35 KV-1

We are ASKING customers to send us your model pictures to be posted on our HOMEPAGE, or post the pictures on Kitlinx Facebook Build-Page where we could capture them! 

$10 store credit will be issued when your picture is posted on the Kitlinx Homepage

Rules:

• Picture will be 1000x250 pixels

• As this picture is ELONGATED, make sure most of your model is mostly on the right side (a gradient will be applied to the left)

• HINT: close-up of details is BEST! We want to see your work! Be proud of your model, whatever your skills

• Your Name/City/State will be posted to give credit-to-whom-it-belongs

• You should tell us the Manufacturer/scale of the subject - an any pertinent information related to the displayed model.

• By sending us the picture, you give authorization to Kitlinx to post that picture publicly

• Kitlinx reserves the right to post or NOT post any picture

Your Feedback:

great service , right part , kitlinx keeps there word and provides parts not normally seen and odd items i like. i will use them again !!!!

Big Bill, President NJIPMS from New Jersey just earned $5 credit!

I like the way  products not normally available to modellers  are able to be ordered--I don't like the involved delay.  Overall, I'll choose KitLinx!

David from California just earned $5 credit!

Everything as usual was great. Like shopping here, great prices, and even better selection. And shipping times are good too. It would be once when an order is held waiting for an item it will take a bit for that we could have the option of the rest being shipped, I pay extra if  needed

Grandpa Leon from South Dakota just earned $5 credit!

NOTE from Kitlinx: Kitlinx2 is NOT fully on the cloud yet. There are a 'few bugs' that needs to be cleaned before this custom system is implemented. ONE KEY future feature is the ability from our customers to "cancel/remove/add/adjust" their order ONLINE, without any involvement from Kitlinx personnel. It will allow orders to be processed FASTER - Kitlinx wants YOU, the customer, to be in-charge of your hobby needs

[Feedback rules]: Kitlinx uses one recent comment, one semi-recent comment, and one in our huge backlog of compliments. Kitlinx tries to reward customers with an extended experience with Kitlinx as they have the most to say about our service. Kitlinx wants to be "transparent" about its service. Some comments might be concerns or constructive criticism.

Search Tips:

[Kitlinx is still working on its LEFT COLUMN searches. This work will be completed as soon as "Kitlinx-on-the-clouds" is working smoothly]

Let me add some "tricks" to the POWERFUL search engine of Kitlinx (the SEARCH BOX at the TOP of the website). Below are the KEYS to search ~ 80,000 available products (63% in US, 37% in Europe)

1. Use the top box search on Homepage

2. Use several keywords separated by spaces to zero-in your search "1/48 spitfire aircraft_model" (59 kits)

3. Use the underscore "_", like armor_models or Tamiya_ or aircraft_accessor "1/48 spitfire aircraft_access" (456 accessories)

4. Use keyword "instock" to JUST search for in-stock items  

5. If you are searching for SALE items, use the keyword "~special~"

6. Don't forget the Manufacturer's link on TOP of each Product-Page. It quickly shows ALL available product from the same manufacturer

7. DO NOT use the asterisk "*"
