117PanAm747's Collection
About the Collector
I am an aviation enthusiast currently based in Shenzhen, China. I am fully bilingual in Chinese and English. My fascination with aviation started when I was young when I spent hours watching aeroplanes take off and land, completely captivated by the magic of flight and the idea that these aircraft could travel to any corner of the globe.
About the Collection
The Boeing 747 has always been my favourite aircraft, and Pan American World Airways is my favourite airline. I frequently wish I could experience the golden age of aviation, a time when Pan Am 747s flew across the globe, and aircraft such as the 747 and Concorde were not facing retirement. Consequently, these models form the core of my collection. I primarily collect: - 1:400 scale Pan American World Airways 747 models from manufacturers including AeroClassics, BigBird, HX Models, and JC Wings. I specifically exclude the 747SP unless affordably priced in order to keep my Pan Am fleet to a manageable size. Furthermore, I will consider other Pan Am aircraft on a case-by-case basis, provided they are in excellent condition and affordably priced. - For airlines other than Pan Am, I strictly limit my collection to new releases and special liveries, such as those produced by Patriot Models. For Sale and Trade: As I prefer to keep my collection streamlined, I regularly sell models. - International Destinations Outside China: I am happy to arrange international shipping via dedicated agents, DHL, or UPS, and I always strive to find the most cost-effective postage options available. For international buyers, I accept payment via PayPal or international bank transfer. - Domestic Sales Within China (Including Hong Kong SAR, Macau SAR, and Taiwan Province, China): For domestic sales within China, I utilise local couriers and the Xianyu platform to manage transactions. - General: I ensure that every model is securely packed using sturdy boxes and ample bubble wrap, with fragile warning stickers placed on the exterior of the packaging. I will also provide detailed photographs or videos of the models before finalising a sale and dispatching the items.
