For the past 3 years, the size of the Mini-Kiwiland Shop catalogue has been in the 25,000s. This does not mean that little changes.

On the contrary: In the past 3 years, I have added over 7,000 items, but also removed over 7,000 items.

However, the removed items are not actually removed. They are simply not displayed. They have been 'archived'.

From now on, you can view these archived items on the website via the 'Search' page. Just click the check box 'Include Archived Items' on this page.

This can be useful when you cannot find an item, even though it was available in the past.

If this is unclear or you have other suggestions, please let me know.

Difference between an archived and discontinued item:

An archived item does not necessarily have to be discontinued. It can also be archived when an item is no longer of interest for me due to low demand or a supplier is no longer able to supply/ship to New Zealand.

A discontinued item is no longer supplied/manufactured by a manufacturer. I do not remove (archive) these items from the website immediately when they get discontinued, because they may be part of the sales history for loyalty discounts. Eventually, all discontinued items will be archived, however.

Paints

I'm considering stocking the following paint ranges.

- Lifecolor
- Revell Enamel
- Tamiya Enamel
- Tamiya Lacquer
- Mr. Hobby Acrysion Color
- Mr. Hobby Gundam
- Vallejo Mecha Color

It is very time-consuming to list all these paints on the website. I need to do it one range at a time. Please let me know which range(s) you would like to see on the website, so I have a better idea where to start (if I decide to stock them).

Many thanks,

Robert
