Yup. This shop is dangerous to your health and your wallet. Thanks for the photos Charter. There are some corners I didnīt check out on my visit. I completely missed the fighters - will do it next year

I think they should check you have paid your return trip before they let you enter the store, like some countries do as a condition for entry.
Gotta love those mugs!
Thanks, Charter!

Such a shame you did not post many pictures so we can all see how big it is  . I have to restrain myself working only 300 metres from the shop

Re: Aviationmegastore (Amsterdam): a real paradise!
Lovely shot. If I need to, I stop by after coming home from the Kaagbaan, Great!
But where is 'The wings Master' haha. Did you see the 787-9 KLM Sample? I Did  I was talking to my friend there about the models and which I should pick. He let me pick the A330 Air Berlin and Scoot 777. He's a really nice man
And Mark, Agreed! My wallet allows me to do so lately
It's a pleasure and a privilege to live so close to the AVM

Re: Aviationmegastore (Amsterdam): a real paradise!
Thanks to all for your appreciation, that is my appreciation! Dragan told me what bus to take and what stop to get off, then i had to walk for a while to reach the shop and my wife started to tell me:
- "do you know where we're going?"
- "no, i don't know, this is the first time also for me..."
- "how long must we walk to reach this stupid shop?"
- "i don't know, but i think it isn't a stupid shop..."
When we arrived, i was nearly to faint, while my wife was without words! It is something hard to explain!
I have found just one model i could buy, an Herpa JAL old livery DC-10, price 70 euro for a bad quality. I have bought 3 spotter books and a DVD (Athens Airport -> Air Utopia), spending 95 euro...
Next to the shop there is an interesting spotting place where the airplanes land in front of you, i was thinking to stop there on the return trip, but it wasn't too much to ask to my wife.

Re: Aviationmegastore (Amsterdam): a real paradise!
That shop is incredible!
I wish I visited when I went to Amsterdam back in April, I will certainly have to pay a visit next time I go! The amount of money I could spend in that shop would be unreal...

I haven't seen the KLM B787-9 sample, at the end of the visit i wondered i spent so few time around the 1:500 models while i was "kidnapped" buy the 1:400, the books and the DVD's.
One thing is sure: if a collector that want to buy some models enters in this shop, he will easily spend 1000/2000 euro!
