We're Back From Germany
Read more →We are back from Germany and are slowly getting the website back to normal. It will take several weeks to re list our usual inventory.
Expect some delays in shipping on items from Germany. We learned in the last few days of our trip that the German Post only just resolved a 2 week strike. So this will likely cause delays. Most of our packages shipped during the period they were on strike so I am unsure how that will work out for our boxes.

End of Our European Trip
We have hidden all of our European inventory to give ourselves enough time for shipping. If you ordered a lot of items, like tins, be sure to check inside. We tried to nest items together for size and protection. Items are sometimes wrapped using scrap paper - so be sure to double check before you throw it away!Read more →
We tried to keep prices low to help justify the higher costs international shipping (once we get the items back in the US, prices will go up sightly to account for shipping and additional time investments).
US inventory should be available again on July 9th or 10th. -

Last European Update & Shipping Invoices
This Friday June 19th, will be the last regular Friday update of our Europe trip. Depending on time (and what new stuff we find), we may do a special update on Monday or Tuesday. Shipping invoices will start going out on Wednesday the 24th. Included in your invoice will be the total package weight so you will know if you can add more items without changing the shipping costs.Read more →

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT!
We will be turning off most of our website inventory on Monday April 20th. Items that we make as they are ordered, like rifle and flare gun grenades, will be turned off on April 15th. IF YOU WANT ANYTHING IN TIME FOR THIS SUMMER DISPLAY SEASON, PLEASE ORDER IT BEFORE THEN, otherwise you may have to wait until we return from Germany in early July, yes, JULY!!! The trip is coming up fast and we will be gone for a long time. We will try to leave some of our items with a colleague to drop ship but this will be a very small selection of items. We will be making regular updates on Fridays at 6:00pm EST of items that we find in Germany so follow our trip to get good deals on unique original and period stuff. We try to keep our prices low when we travel so we can keep the beer and gas flowing.Read more → -
