HKC Posted May 22, 2013 Share #1 Posted May 22, 2013 Anybody know what is going on with Billing Boats USA? I can not link to their site from model ship world's home page and if I go there some other way (e.g., via google), I cannot order paint online. I also see they started selling their paint through retailers but do not know how to find out what local retailer might carry it. Any body know anything? thanks, HKC Quote Current (fist) build Billing's Danmark 5005 static Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

catopower Posted May 23, 2013 Share #3 Posted May 23, 2013 (edited) I've just been in an emai conversation with Roger Jeya who owns Ages of Sail. Seems he just bought Billing Boats USA, so you might try giving him a call or email: Click here for the contact page: age of sail - Contact Us Hope that helps!

bigpav Posted May 23, 2013 Share #4 Posted May 23, 2013 I have also tried to get replacement parts. I emailed billing boats U.S.A. and they told me that they could no longer help me. Thanks for the tip on Age of Sail, I hope they can help me out. Quote ScottCurrent build:<p>HMS Renown - Billing Boats Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
popeye the sailor Posted May 23, 2013 Share #5 Posted May 23, 2013 seems like the cat is out of the bag........yes, BB USA is no more. due to slow sales and the inability to get their orders in a timely manner. not much more to tell.......the rest of the info I got is already here..........I love the billing's paint. smells like hell, but has a nice finish.
