Cleaver Models Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 I am abit puzzled i have heard rummors that Accurate have lost the u/h contract is this true and if so who will be the new distribitors in the uk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyB Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 May I be so bold as to hazard a guess?? I would think that UH might not need UK agents now the business has taken off. The UK rep I met the other day seems to be heavily involved with development and the owner (of UH) is over here quite a bit from what i can gather. Perhaps they are thinking about setting up their own UK branch or in other words handle UK distribution in house Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powerrabbit Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 I thought that Creative Masters were the U.K importers/distributors for UH, or are they simply the U.K agents? I say this as the majority of the of the new stuff from UH when released is advertised in the magazines under the name of CM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gav836 Posted June 7, 2007 Share Posted June 7, 2007 I am abit puzzled i have heard rummors that Accurate have lost the u/h contract is this true and if so who will be the new distribitors in the uk This is a load of rubbish and nothing but malicious rumours, I have been told as much by someone at Accurate Die-cast this week. The persons responsible for starting it should be getting a nice surprise in the post soon enough if they haven't already : Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPN Posted June 7, 2007 Share Posted June 7, 2007 That's a pity. I've spoken to a couple of people who have dealt with Accurate and they all tell stories of utter incompetence. If they are as bad as is made out then we can only hope that UH pulls the plug and appoints someone competent in the near future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That could be a little difficult as I'm lead to believe Accurate Die-cast own between 25% and 30% of Universal Hobbies. Someone would probably need to buy out the UH shares.

Gav836 Posted June 7, 2007 Share Posted June 7, 2007 That would explain a lot :D :D Thats what I was told earlier this week by the same person who told me the other information, they do own quite a large share of UH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
