Artists:
Check them out. When
you're thinking of buying a model horse from someone you don't know, you can
always check their reputation on the
Model Horse Hobby References
group (MHHR) on Yahoo. Joining the group is free, and once you do so you
can search the message board for good service ("Green Light") and bad service
("Red Light") reports from other collectors. You can also post a query about
the business or person you're thinking of buying from. It's not perfect, but
it's a good way to get a general impression of someone before you hand them
your money.
