Timecast

[kipt]

Just got a notice that Timecast is looking for a buyer for the business by the end of the year.  They plan to operate as normal this year but plan to get out of the business.

[Leon]

Yeah, sad news to hear but I hope the guys get to enjoy their retirement! 

[FierceKitty]

I hope they find one. There's some good stuff in their ranges.

[Sean Clark]

Time to get bits I've been thinking a out for a while.

Seconded

[Duke Speedy of Leighton]

I've know them since the 80s.
Will miss it.

Yep , just spent an hour going through website.

Even if they find a buyer, no guarantee it will be based in UK

[Orcs]

Well That was an expensive piece of information to receive.

Mrs Orcs said " You had better get all you need" so I did   

[Lord Kermit of Birkenhead]

There any stock left ? 

[Orcs]

Yes, I just bought some extra bits for the latex rivers I have. Mainly Bridges and fords.  I also bought 6 feet of the narrowest river. I have not used my 6mm stuff for years , but "Just in case".

I once saw a link to an ebay sale, for some sort of mid-life crisis toy - either a large motorcycle/sports car or a project restoration "classic" car. I forget which.

The chap had put "Reason for sale - "Do whatever you want" doesn't mean what I thought it meant".

Well he obviously doesn't have a Mrs Orcs

Perhaps you could have saved money by buying the entire business.

Oh dear, hope they find a buyer :S

I haven't ordered often from them but when I have it's nice stuff and I cover more...
