The INTERURBAN MODELS marketplaces (there are three of them ...)

 Currently, there are three marketplaces to buy INTERURBAN MODELS








1/ The INTERURBAN MODELS Facebook Shop https://www.facebook.com/InterurbanModels 
- You don’t need to have a Facebook account to access! 

2/ The INTERURBAN MODELS section on Shapeways  https://www.shapeways.com/shops/interurban 

3/ The INTERURBAN MODELS section on iMaterialise  https://i.materialise.com/en/shop/designer/interurban 

Why this? Eight years ago, we started our production with two prominent 3D-Providers, iMaterialise and Shapeways. Both have their ups and downs, and the production was split on the two stores. Most of the early production, the CSL Sedan and the big wooden Combines, is located at the iMaterialise Shop. The later products are on Shapeways. Understandable, 3D providers only sell products that are made in their own factories, and no 3rd party items. Both providers ships worldwide, the shipping price is calculated when checking out. 

Two years ago, we started printing with our own machines, and selling also laser cut products; these items are on the Facebook Shop. We ship worldwide too, and as today ALL sendings arrived well, even if it took sometimes a week more than usual last months. The shipping price is calculated when checking out, before payment. Clients are protected by the PayPal Buyer protection. 

We acknowledge that this can be confusing: the HO scale CSL Sedan is available at iMaterialise, the N scale car body in the Interurban Models Facebook Shop

We will try to simplify this inherited structure in the future. All new items are produced in-house, and therefore will show up in the Facebook Shop, and some older ones will be changed to in-house printing and move the Facebook Shop also. Next weeks, we will establish a PDF catalogue that will listen all models and the place where to buy.

For any request, you can contact us by mail at volkmar.meier@wanadoo.fr , orders can be established by mail.
