Yeah Mass, I said the same thing almost a year ago when he kept making excuses for weeks on end why nothing was updated (due to having to take care of his wife who had a broken leg). All I got was ripped on. But it is evident since that time, that nothing has changed and in fact has only gotten worse. Ordering & email problems, lack of worthy updates, no interesting new product lines. Its why I finally decided after so long to get rid of the last of my Code 3 items. Even the Past Time Hobby specials, which I usually looked forward to because they were always something new or interesting were anything but that. Oh well. Always something else we can spend our money on.

Right on, John is clueless about fire engines
Me too, I'm surprised Code 3 has lasted this long
and already closed up. They haven't made many releases and the couple they did were crap.
Crap repaints don't get any of my money. I've
been so disapointed for the last 2 or 3 years
that I don't care if and when Code 3 closes up.

I remeber back (2000 maybe) when you could dial C3s number, speak to Jewel, and within minutes she would complete your oder, update you on what is scheduled, plus have a pleasant conversation. If by chance, your order was in error, or your credit card wrongly billed, Jewel and her associates would have the error corrected in thirty seconds.

Every so often I'll read the "Whats's New" page. What in the world does the current babbling about nonsense has anything to do with the hobby, except for the words "collector" or models" inserted every so often? It's kind of embarrasing, if not a direct affront to their once loyal customers.
