He loves it! Sorry I was on vacation and forwarded it to him so that he could respond. But he loves it! Continue on!

Thanks

This letter is to serve as notice of my Company's appreciation of the work carried out by Premier Ship Models Ltd regarding the design, construction and delivery of five model ships for a project Rich Creation International Ltd has to fit out the currently 'in-progress' installation of 'Hong Kong's first full Maritime Museum'.

We first commissioned Premier Ship Models in early 2004 for a very urgent delivery on custom making ship models of the Batavia and San Felipe Galleons. This then increased to additional orders for a further two model historical model ships of the Borobodur and Perahu vessels and lastly, late in 2004, a Singalese model sailing boat.

The entire project continued to undego many design changes and even resulted in the change of size/scale of the model ship Batavia. All accommodated without problem by PSM. They worked very professionally and did significant research on the later commissioned model ships as our client had little information on these historical ships.

Constant delays and our clients change of mind on needs, finishing, ageing of the model ships etc added complexities to already difficult tasks, but in the end we received on time very excellent wooden ship models, highly detailed and fine finishing. The shipping and packing was excellent, and all five ship models received after a near 3 week journey by sea were without damage.

We found Rashid and his staffs' service to be very helpful, timely and professional in every respect. We will and hope to use them again on other projects and further commissions for this Museum as it expands and creates new displays. The general quality, service and reliability has proved its worth in using them over less expensive options, but in saying that we still find them to be highly competitive and value for money. We would recommend them to any other prospective client for the provision of high quality maritime ship models.

Best Regards, Clive Miners, Director.

RICH CREATION INTERNATIONAL LTD, HONG KONG, July 2005

Re : Supply of five historical ship models for Hong Kong's Maritime Museum

Premier Ship Models won the contract to research and build to scale a collection of highly detailed world class transportation model boats that would enhance the atmosphere and convey the storyline at the ‘Madeira Story Centre’ in Funchal

Portugal

The ‘HMS Endeavour’, in particular is an outstanding well crafted display historical wooden ship model, which is proving to be of great interest to the visitors to the Island.

Re: Seven Ship Models, Aquila Airways, La Normandie, Caravel, Bremen Cog, HMS Endeavour, HMS Northumberland & Great Eastern.

When confronted with two projects for the BBC 'Ancestors' both requiring detailed model ships, and both with a tight budget and limited timescale, I was initially at a loss. Fortunately a quick search on the web introduced the BBC to Premier Ship Models.

Having met with Rashid to discuss my requirements, objectives and timescales, I was sincerely astonished with both his enthusiasm and the detailed quality of his company's ship models.

Despite an almost impossible schedule, his extraordinary team of craftsfolk managed to deliver ‘2 x 8 feet' ship models of the HMS Beagle and HMS Bellona -on time and more importantly on budget!!

I greatly look forward to working with the team of true professionals on another project very shortly.

The ship models are exceptional, everyone just loves them, floating in the air. Merima (Finnish company) Marine Interior Solutions commissioned twenty ship models at 1.5 metres long each, to be hung from the ceiling of a new Cruise Liner ‘Miracle’ for the Caribbean Cruise Line company.

I have the model and it is beautiful thank you Regards Ian (USA Client May 07)

Hi Rehaz I'm now in Sudbury MA.and have unpacked HMS Victory and the cross- section of Surprise. I'm delighted with both.

John Baggot , Buyer of HMS Victory and HMS Surprise Cross-section ( USA Nov 06)

Dear Premier ship Models,

Today, I received the HMS Beagle. The ship was in excellent condition and met all my expectations. I was especially pleased with the fact that the life boats were painted white and not left natural. I beleive this is more accurately represents the Beagle of the day.

I could not be happier. Thank you for the excellent quality and service.

Deren James Ross, Buyer of HMS Beagle (USA Nov 06)

Rashid Lalloo

I just wanted to thank you for all your help with my requests on the Victory. Yesterday we placed an order for the Corel model. It is interesting that for me to purchase this model in Australia would have cost over $800 Australian which is almost $150 more expensive than the purchase from you. Once again thank you for your help and prompt attention.

Patricia Riseley Buyer of the HMS Victory Model Boat Kit (Australia Mar 07)

Hello Rehaz,

Sorry, completely forgot to write to say we have received the model.
Everything in one piece and very much to our approval,

Thank you very much,

Angela Porteous Buyer of the Golden Hind Model ( UK Nov 06)

Hello Rehaz

Thank You so much. The Nouveau arrived today is perfect condition and it is very beautiful model. Thanks for your integrity and professionalism.

William B Main Buyer of Nouveau Model Boat (USA July 06)

What a beautiful "Surprise".

My ship has come home and is now berthed in a snug, cosy cabin that does not roll.

Thank you .

Regards

Ian Clark Buyer of HMS Surprise Model ( Australia Jan 07)

Dear Ladies and Gentlemen

a great compliment for your website and the models.
An excellent price-value relation.

I am highly interested in the San Felipe Platinum smaller. 79 cm length.

in your special offers you write, that shipping is free and there will be a 10 % discount on it. Is this still true ?

And besides that, did you sell the acryl-boxes for the ships without the ships too ?

Please send me an offer for the San Felipe.

Thank you for your efforts and have a nice day

Many greetings

Ferdinand Kürmaier interested in San Felipe( Platinum) (Germany Jan 07)

The HMS Surprise model and cross-section model arrived last night and are absolutely beautiful! Perfect timing too with the holidays just around the corner. All the changes I requested are there and just as I pictured them. Having both the ship model and the cross section model was definitely a good choice and the cross-section looks fantastic. I have already spent several hours gazing at both models! Thank you for all the work and making all the requested changes. This has been a very pleasant experience and I look forward to working with you again. Please convey my gratitude to all those involved with my models - I truly appreciate all the work and effort.

I am currently finishing the Alexander Kent series and about to re-read the Patrick O'Brian series. I am sure I'll be spending a lot of time looking at the Surprise while reading about her!

Happy Holidays!

Mr Lee Roehrdans Buyer of HMS Surprise Model and HMS Surprise Cross Section (USA July 06)

Dear Rehaz - the Harvey docked today and was a lovely surprise for my husband who was wowed by it and so was I. She is beautiful. Many thanks for all your help and advice. All the best to you and your staff.

Best regards, Anita

Mrs Anita Byrne Buyer of Harvey Model Ship (UK Oct 06)

Fantastic! I can’t wait to see them Rehaz! They will be on prominent display in my family. I will gladly give you a reference (and referrals) once they arrive.

Happy Holidays!

We got the model today. Thank you very much for your trying and we are really happy with the present.

Thank you again!

Mr Chuan Wu Buyer of Amerigo Vespucci Tribute Model (Germany DEC 06)

Hi Rehana and Rehaz,

The model arrived safely today. What can I say - it is absolutely fantastic !
The standard of craftmanship is superb. Please pass on my thanks and gratitude to all concerned. Every part of the ship, from the rigging to the keel, is perfectly detailed and a delight to behold.

Presently the ship is the centrepiece of my dining table where I intend to keep her over the Xmas season so that as many people as possible can see her.

I would have no hesitation in recommending your company and it's fine products to anyone thinking of buying - friendly staff, skilled workmanship and great packaging and delivery.

Please let me wish you all the compliments of the season and continued success for 2007.

Alan Lloyd Buyer of the HMS Bellona (UK Nov 06)

I will be leaving for my Florida home on January 5th 2007 returning to my Massachusetts home on April 15th. I was hoping to receive the model before I leave. if this is not possible, ship anyway to Massachusetts as there will be somebody there to receive it.

I already have HMS Surprise and it gives me joy each morning I walk in my Office.

Sincerely

John Baggott , Buyer of HMS Victory Bicentennial (USA Nov 06)

I have been buying online from Premier Ship Models for almost two years and having purchased about ten different models I may confidently recommend Premier Ship Models to all collectors.

The craftman is detailed and perfect. The shipment is precise. The service provided by the team is both professional and very friendly.

I'd like to thank everyone in Premier Ship Models for the extraordinary service provided each and everytime I place an order. I will definitely be coming back for more pieces for my collection.

Thank You

Mr Murat Ozgorkey, Buyer of Endeavour J Class and HMS Warrior Models ( Turkey Sept 06)

Thank you for confirming my order. Although I am not able to tell you where and how I found your web, since I've been browsing all the world to find a proper one for me in the past few days, I have lost memory of where and how I got there.

But one thing I can tell you is, I have looked all internet model ship seller. USA, CA, South Africa, Russian, Vietnam... Finally, I believe I found this one is for me. In term of quality, pricing, service.. thank you for your letter, I believe this model will be a satisfaction. I look forward to receive it in the near future.

Liu Yu Shian, Buyer of Sovereign of the Seas New Platinum Model (Taiwan Sept 06)

Rehana, Model arrived. Excellent model first class. Looks great. Good quality. Just unfortunate that postage is very dear in comparison to the price of the model but I suppose there is nothing we can do about that. Might be worth thinking about buying any models all at once to save on postage. Probably as cheap to send 2 or 3 models as it is to send one? Thank you very much for kind attention.

Peter Cush, Buyer of Brixham Trawler (Northern Ireland Sept 06)

Rehana--Success!

The Fed Ex tracking predicted redelivery for 10:30 on 9/1, so I came home from work in the hopes of intercepting the package.It arrived at exactly 10:30!

Haven't opened it as I have to return to work, but the Fed Ex driver complimented you on your packaging. He was particularly taken with the outside bubble wrap cushioning the contents.

Thanks.

Jane Mac Millan , Buyer HMS Victory Model Ship 3 (USA Sept 06)

Many thanks for the prompt despatch of the model of "Bounty" - this went down very well as a birthday gift. very pleased indeed.

Please send it as soon as you can, once again thanks for your prompt service.

Duncan Rorrison, Buyer Albatross (Australia Aug 06)

Thanks for this. Am absolutely delighted with Santa Maria and it looks great in the house.

Still thinking about the Nina and Pinta – what’s the best price you could do for me if I ordered both?

Best wishes

David Frank Buyer of Santa Maria Model Ship (UK Aug 06)

I found your website through an extensive search using Google; I looked an many other sites that also construct model ships, including the Amerigo Vespucci, but I felt the most comfortable with your quality and what you had to say about your product on the website.

I have never purchased a model ship before [this being my first] but it has always been a dream of mine since I was a boy. I wait with great anticipation to receive your work of art.

May I ask you one question before you begin construction? I see that you offer the same model, for the same price, in a “painted” series and I have opted for the partially painted series. In your professional opinion what do you think looks the best? Perhaps that is an unfair question to ask since I am sure that both are magnificent but I really grappled with this decision and if you leaned towards the painted model I would make that small change to my order.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Very truly yours,

Donald Whittaker, The Designer Guy , Buyer of Amerigo Vespucci Model Ship (partially painted) (USA Jul 06)

The model of Bellona arrived today wed 20th july at 11.45pm. It really is superb and so well packaged to protect it. I am so pleased and would recommend you to anyone for skill and first class service.

You have dealt with me so professionally I can only thank you again. I await the date to pick up the display case to finish this fine craft off. Looking forward to hearing from you.

If you want me to act as a referee it would be my pleasure.

Ronald Swann , Buyer of HMS Bellona Ship Model (July 06)

Good Morning

I would like to thank you for the professional work and the quick delivery of the models. It arrived safely yesterday. I will certainly let everybody around me in France know of the good work you done.

Regards Stephanie Caudal, Buyer of Tribute Models of Mercury and Amerigo Vespucci and the Prie Diestnanja (June 2006)

Hi Rashid

Received the HMS Victory model ship today 21st June. Have checked the ship model over all ok. I am very pleased with my ship model and wish to thank you and staff for the prompt service you have given me.

I used google main search for [model boats].

Regards Leon, Buyer of HMS Victory model ship 1 (June 2006)

Hi,

Am sorry i was just panicking about the gift not being here in time, but I can assure you my husband is very happy and says the gift was worth waiting for.

Many thanks, Angela Spalding, Buyer of Anna 2 Model Boat kit (June 2006)

The ship model (HMS Bounty) arrived on Tuesday this week. I'm most impressed by it. It's beautiful. The workmanship is superb.

This is something I've waited a long time for (I originally started looking some 15 years ago when I first set up in business). I've absolutely no hesitation in recommending your company and its model ships (and have already done so) - service was excellent and the ship beyond praise. I wait with impatience the arrival of the second ship model (HMS Surprise)!

As to how I found Premier Ship Models - it was by searching in the main search of Google. It was last year and I can't remember the key words I used though I think I had several goes. As I mentioned earlier this is something I've been looking for for a long time but it wasn't until recently that I used the internet - should have thought of that earlier.

Best regards, Jeremy Sargeant, Geo-Consulting Ltd (June 2006)

Hi Rashid

Sorry I haven’t got back to you sooner. It’s been madly busy at work.

I’m delighted with the Santa Maria ship model – it looks really great.

Again many thanks for the splendid work on the Santa Maria.

Best wishes, David - UK Buyer of Santa Maria model ship (May 2006)

Dear Rehaz

Received the model today- perfectly in tact.

Very pleased with the quality.

Thanks for your help.

Colin Boag, UK Buyer of 1930s A Cup Half Model (May 2006)

Dear Rashid,

I purchased the Endeavour model boat from you in April and was shipped to me in perfect condition. Very pleased with the model and our business transaction.

USA Buyer of Endeavour Model Yacht (April 2006)

Hi Rehaz

Just a quick email to let you know I have received the model today, thanks.

May I say the packaging is 1st class, strong and secure; the model arrived without any damage. The model look stunning and beautiful looks even better than the photos.

After seeing that, I will certainly buying another one in the near future, so I will be in contact with you soon.

The model is first rate and I will recommend to other model ship collectors.

Thanks again for all the help.

Best Regards

W. W. Man.

UK Buyer of Flying Fish ship model (March 2006)

Hi Rashid,

I hope I find you well !

I have just placed an order on your website for a model of HMS Bellona, this time for myself. Having seen the great job you did on HMS Surprise, and the special offers now available, I just could not resist. I'm quite convinced this could become addictive and I think you should issue a health warning on the website!

Can I ask that you supply the model with the all the square sails rolled up and only the fore and aft ones set (as on the model of HMS Surprise). This appeals to my sense of symmetry and I think looks aesthetically more pleasing.

Thank you

Alan.

UK Buyer of HMS Surprise and HMS Bellona (March 2006)

Half Model of Vindo 40 Sloop

We are all very pleased with our finished model. You have been very nice and very easy to work with. The model was completed to our specifications in a wonderful, timely manner and is a gift we will be very proud to give. It is amazing that we have accomplished this feat across continents, using only e-mail and websites.

You have been very responsive and receptive to our needs and have been very accommodating. I would highly recommend you to others looking for similar models. And I thank you.

USA Buyer of custom half model of Vindo 40 Sloop as a Present for an Honourable Judge (17th March 2006)

I was able to show my mother the pictures you sent today, and we agree that it looks very good. We very excited to present it to him.

Happy New Year to you, it is the year of the ‘Dog’.

Everything is fine, the photos are wonderful, thank you very much.

Hi Rehaz,

Just to let you know I received the Dragon boat last week and I'm very pleased with it.

I found your company on Google. I have also been emailing Rashid with some queries and he has been more than helpful.

Thank you for all your help, and it was a pleasure doing business.

Kind regards, Siobhán Connolly (Buyer of the Dragon Model Boat, February 2006)

Dear Mr Rehaz Lal

Just a quick note to thank you for my model boat which arrived on Saturday. Thank you for your prompt service, your model boat will be loved when it is opened on Christmas day.

I shall recommend you to my friends.

Once again, many thanks.

Dear Rehaz

The brass porthole mirror was delivered today. I am very happy with my purchase.

Thanks, Benjamin Guillermo Suarez B. (Guatemalan buyer of the Brass Porthole Mirror, December 2005)

Thank you very much for all your help. I am pleased to say that I will be using you again.

Dear Rehaz,

The model yacht has been delivered today and I am sure my son will be very pleased with his Christmas present. Thank you for all your help and I will spread the news to my friends regarding the quality of the model ships you supply.

Many thanks once again and I hope you have a very good festive season.

Kind regards, John Hunt (Buyer of the 1930s Classic Model Yacht, December 2005)

I looked at the invoice and everything seems fine to me go ahead and charge the card. And as to how I found out about you I was actually looking for someone to build a model of the Super Star Destroyer featured in the movie Star Wars The Empire Strikes Back. When I searched on the internet for people/companies that build models your web site came up among the search and after looking through your selection and decided I had to have one since they were so impressive. If you need anything else let me know.

Just wanted to let you know that I received the HMS Victory ship model on Wednesday, and everything was great no damage occurred in the shipping process and the ship model looks great. Just have to figure out where would be best to display it!

Thanks Casey Lawrence (USA Buyer of the HMS Victory Tribute model ship, December 2005)

Happy New Year Rehaz,

Thanks for all your help last year. The model ships were received on time and were a very big hit with my clients!

Could you tell me what I was charged in Euros. These were on special and the invoice came in UK pounds. Also could you tell me which showcase I should order for this. I would prefer the showcase in all glass with a wooden bottom. By all glass I mean no metal frame around the glass just glass to glass. Could you also give me the cost in Euro including shipping?

Again thanks, Mike Berry (Buyer of two HMS Endeavour model ships, December 2005)

Dear Rehaz,

I am very well thanks. I hope you are too. Thanks for the pics. The model ship looks fantastic! You have incorporated all the changes that I asked for.

Thanks again for your help. I look forward to hearing from you soon with delivery instructions.

The ship model of the HMS Surprise (with raised quarter deck) has arrived as per your e mail. We are all absolutely delighted with it. It is all that we anticipated and more!

Thank you for the sand glass.

Best Regards Alan Lloyd (UK Buyer of HMS Surprise, with raised quarter deck, October 2005 / January 2006)

Hi Rashid,

I must say WOW! Very beautiful work. God will love you more for this.

Thank you, Jack Shemesh, GWCA Founder/Pres./Exec.Director (Swiss Buyer of custom made Amerigo Vespucci, 1 meter Golden Hind and 1 meter Mayflower, September 2005)

Looks wonderful.

When can you deliver it? October 18 is the last possible day before the Trafalgar Dinner at which it will be the centrepiece.

David Thomas (UK Buyer of custom HMS Victory, September 2005)

Our model ship arrived safely on Saturday and we are very pleased with it. Thank you again for all your help.

Kindest regards, Richard May & Chloe (UK Buyer of HMS Surprise, July 2005)

Hi Rashid,

Just a quick note to let you know that the ship model of the Cutty Sark was received today. Very nice indeed. Thanks for your help and prompt attention. I look forward to receiving the Dutch Botter model ship in due course.

Kind regards, Trevor Crowe (UK Buyer of Cutty Sark, July 2005)

My custom ship model of the Friesland arrived. It is gorgeous! Please pass my thanks to the folks who built it and finished it. I could not be happier with their work. Also, my thanks to Rehaz and Rahana who helped along the way. (Fedex did a great job in getting here on time and in good shape).

Steve Fitzsimmons (USA Buyer of Friesland, June 2005)

HMS Bellona model ship arrived unscathed apart from two loose cannon on deck which was quickly put right. She is now at her new permanent berth at High Prairie Farm overlooking the Missouri River. The quality of workmanship and customer service have been of the highest standard, my compliments.

Bennett Dickson (UK Buyer of HMS Bellona, July 2005)

The Albatross ship model you sent me surpassed my best expectations.

Congratulations

Looking forward for our next friendly co-opereation.

I hope not to get addicted to these ship models.......but we'll see.

Thanks a lot.

Consulate-General of the Republic of Singapore - Dr J. Toth (Hungary Buyer of Amerigo Vespucci, May 2005)

I was very pleased to collect my custom ship model of the three masted barque Brier Holme the other day. The ship model is wonderful and is a very accurate copy of the original vessel. The detail is marvellous and all the workmanship is superb.

To make this custom ship model from photographs only, and no plans as such, is a great achievement. It really is beautiful and admired by my friends. You have created a ship model of this 1876 vessel which will be handed down through the generations.

Yours Sincerely, Michael Bowyer (UK Buyer of custom model Brier Holme, May 2005)

Thanks for the information on the display case. The HMS Surprise model ship arrived in perfect condition, the day before my husband's birthday. It is amazingly beautiful and detailed; he was speechless when he saw it. He spent about an hour exploring it that first day, using his reference texts on O'Brian's novels to examine every detail. He was very moved by the gift and the skill and craftsmanship of your ship model builders. He's an engineer, and was particularly impressed with the way you designed and packaged the crate the HMS Surprise arrived in. He's planning on sending you and your employees his own message to express his admiration and thanks personally.

Thanks again for all your hard work, both in building this wonderful ship model and in getting it to us on time. Your work made my husband's birthday magical for him and for our family.

Please thank Rashid for me as well.

Teresa McKimmey-Caven (USA Buyer of HMS Surprise, Feb 05)

Our ship model arrived last week while we were away. It arrived in excellent condition and looks very nice. As the third model ship in my small collection and first from England, I consider it very special.

Thanks for your help throughout the ordering process.

Regards, David (USA Buyer of Albatross, 2004)

My father took delivery some time ago of a ship model for the Harveyfrom yourselves. I managed to see it for myself a short while ago. All I can say is the ship model is even better than what I had expected from the pictures on your site, she's a masterpiece! The finesse of the detail and the grandeur your ship model projects are nothing short of jaw-dropping. I hope I've conveyed my thanks properly here.

Thank you ;o) Lynn Farrelly (Daughter of UK Buyer of Harvey, 2004 )

I am writing to tell you how pleased I am with my model boat of HMS Surprise. I have owned the ship for some time now but the pleasure I get each time I walk past has not diminished at all. The model boat always draws very complimentary comments from friends and other visitors, both for the dramatic impact and standard of workmanship. I am sure that HMS Surprise will not be the only thing I buy from you. Keep up the good work!

Mike McSean -Metropolitan Police Sergeant (UK Buyer of HMS Surprise, 2003)

You are a star! Fantastic! It just looked so good. I couldn't believe just how good when I saw the ship models on Saturday! Anyway..who's to say she wasn't copper bottomed when re-fitted at some point!!!

Very kindest regards, The Brood (UK Buyer of a Custom Built Model Ship of the Superbe, 2003)

This is just to let you know that the Hourglass nautical gift was a great success at the presentation. The recipient was hugely pleased and I passed your contact details on to several people. Thank-you once again for your patience with me and for getting it all sorted out satisfactorily for the presentation.

Our best wishes,Martin (UK Buyer of Brass 30 minute Hourglass, 2003)

Just a quick note to let you know that both Albatross and America model boats docked safely at Longboat Key, and both look great. Thank you so much for your kind attention to all this. The Albatross model boat is a lovely little ship, although she does look a little lost in our apartment. With the benefit of hindsight I probably should have got the full sized ship model of the USS Constitution, but I was a little apprehensive about the size. Anyway, I'll save that for another day. Once again, many thanks. I am showing your brochure to all my friends.

With best regards. Martin Vandersteen (USA Buyer of Albatross and America, 2003)

Thanks for the model boat, our M.D was pleased. I have been approached by another member of staff who has shown an interest in the boat. I mentioned to him the model boat was with a special discount. He’s still interested in spite of me trying to dissuade him not to waste your time. Could you let me know what can be done for him?

Regards Gordon (UK Buyer of HMS Victory, 2003)

Great. I am very happy with my model ship of the HMS Endeavour.

Cheers, Bill Koutsouras (Grand Cayman Buyer of HMS Endeavour, October 2003)

A brief note to confirm that HMS Surprise ship model arrived on time and in one piece.

I am absolutely delighted with her and thank you very much for your trouble and the unpacking instructions. Should you wish to refer any intending customer in my direction I would be delighted to commend this outstanding and very beautiful example of the modellers art to them.

Best wishes and thanks - Tony Jones (USA Buyer of HMS Surprise, 2003)

I thought that I would let you know that the HMS Victory model ship arrived safely the other day. Even after seeing the level of finish and attention to detail of your other ship models, when we met on your stand at the London Boat Show, I was still immensely impressed and pleased with the actual ship. Thank you for taking the time to add the additional paint to the hull. It was certainly worth waiting for and will now be a happy and permanent reminder of my childhood in Pompey.

I hope PSM continues to succeed as it deserves (hopefully helped by our picture in Canal Boat Magazine this month!!) and I would be most grateful if you would send me a copy of your catalogue so so that I can 'spread the word' to others who will no doubt be equally impressed when I put my HMS Victory ship model on display.

Many thanks, once again, Matt & Jane Strange (UK Buyer of HMS Victory, 2002)

Received my HMS Surprise ship model yesterday (11 June 2004). Many thanks for this fine model ship and the good service. The packing was excellent, do not know how you could have done any better.

Respectfully, Ralph Wiechert (USA Buyer of HMS Surprise, June 2004)

Just thought I’d let you know that my model boat arrived safely and is absolutely stunning. I’m amazed at the quality and detail and can’t praise Premier Ship Models enough.

Best wishes and thanks again Steve Thomas (UK Buyer of HMS Surprise, 2003)

Thank you so very much for the amazing model! When I came round to the showroom a few weeks ago, I was astonished by the quality of the ship models on display and couldn't help wondering and getting quite excited about the ship model I had ordered. I have to say I was stunned when I saw it, not only by the size but the quality! Thank you so much for not only providing a truly first class model ship, but also the very friendly and helpful service. I could not recommend you highly enough. I hope you have an excellent Boat Show, and look forward to seeing you on your return. I got her home safe and sound and she is now sitting on my table in the front room. I spent all the journey home just looking at it!!! Every time I pass by on the way to the Kitchen, I just stop and look (WOW!!).

Very Kindest Regards and best wishes to you all, Brendan (UK Buyer of Superbe, 2003)

Our ship model arrived today, and Matt is thrilled, he loves it! The husband of one of our friends may be interested in ordering one of your model ships (it's always the guys, eh?). We'll give him your e-mail address when he's decided.

Thank you for everything! Marleigh Driscoll (USA Buyer of HMS Surprise, 2003)
