This question has probably been asked before and if so, sorry to be bringing it up again but I was just wonderin', if it would be possible to receive email notification or better still, reserve models which are soon to arrive.

The reason being is that I live in a remote location (far North West of WA) and from time to time I have missed a model which I desperately wanted.

I am waiting impatiently for the DJ Tru Blue to arrive and scared S#*#less that I'll miss it.

There are also other models like the the Bullitt Mustang and the Kennedy Parade Lincoln (which I think now is sold out).
Just a simple email notification would be great as I usually check my email every day either at work or home. I don't always get the time to look around the site to make sure, that a model has not got under my guard.

If I could flag models that would give me an email when they were on site and for sale, would be a tremendous help and ease my peace of mind.

I know what you mean. I'm in Newman and have the same problem. I got an e-mail from Biante saying the True Blue Falcon will be released on the website at 2:00 pm Perth time. I have to think something up as I will be at work until 6:30... I dont know how to subscribe for the e-mails now cause I did it when they still had the old site.
Gateway model cars has a pretty good selection & also have a pre-order for the Falcon. I would prefer to order from Biante as it gets here a lot quicker, they package it better and cause they're "locals". I have found a couple of cars at Gateway that had sold out on Biante before (including the XE). Good luck!!!

Thanks Martin, I'll use the reserve option at Gateway I think.
Yes I like to support the locals and the points system with Biante.

I live in Karratha but just recently moved here from Wickham.
There are no "hobby" shops here. I do all my model purchasing online or on "Sold" or "Ebay".
Once again thanks for your help.
