The Ship Model Forum

Hello,

Can anybody recommend a Russian online bookshop that accepts credit card payments and ships internationally? There are some current Russian publications about warships that I would like to buy, but I haven't been able to locate any copies for sale outside Russia.

Thank you.

Hi Linux
It depends what you are looking for. Lots of stuff you can download online (for free )
Could you post you list and probably I can point you to some stores.

P.S.Never ever use armybook.com-they are tiffs…

Hi Ramzay,

Yes, I'm aware of Links to this site not allowed due to copyright violations.

I would like to buy some of the titles I found there in order to obtain better quality photographs and plans. For example the Боевые корабли мира (Fighting ships of the world) series contains some interesting titles.

Hi Linux
Here are couple links:

http://www.collectrussia.com/showcat.htm?cat=NavalBooks
http://www.kniga.com/books/dept.asp?dept%5Fid=9
http://www.ozon.ru/context/catalog/id/1071160/

I used all of them. First two are pretty quick but third is slow (I wait about 5 months).


Sincerely
Ramzay

i use the link

no problem with expedition (in italy) 3- 4 weeks but you have to pay by western union in advance. i use it from a year and never have problem.
i communicate by e-mail in english (italinglish may be).
ciao peppe

Hi Ramzay,

Thank you very much for those. The first two didn't offer a wide range of titles, presumably because since they're based in the US they carry limited stock. However the third one, ozon.ru, had a much more extensive and interesting catalogue. I'm in no particular hurry so may well give them a try.

Thanks again.

Hi peppe,

You have provided another interesting Russian site. However I am reluctant to use Western Union in cases where the recipient is unknown to me. Therefore I need somewhere that will accept credit card payments.

Thanks again.

Hi Linux

try my chum sergey Myagkov here:
http://siriusm.homestead.com/index.html

I have bought many many books from him

downside is westren union money transfer..--but I have had no problems for the last 5 years

Try him with a cheapish book-see how you get on!

I have also succesfully bought from here in poland--good prices-alas limited choice...
