Dear Rehaz / Rashid
Many thanks for this - we have received 3 models in the office this morning.
The models look great! so please pass on my thanks to everyone for all the efforts to get this right. Should we order more, would probably change a couple of things - but overall very good.
I will speak to the Events team now, and see if we can recommend further orders from other x40 teams, I have already passed your details to Matt at progressive Marketing who is considering models for I share's. I'll been in touch regarding commission and your otherquestions, just back from a week off, so please bare with me as I have a fair bit on!
Kind Regards
He loves it! Sorry I was on vacation and forwarded it to him so that he could respond. But he loves it! Continue on!
Thanks

This letter is to serve as notice of my Company's appreciation of the work carried out by Premier Ship Models Ltd regarding the design, construction and delivery of five model ships for a project Rich Creation International Ltd has to fit out the currently 'in-progress' installation of 'Hong Kong's first full Maritime Museum'.
We first commissioned Premier Ship Models in early 2004 for a very urgent delivery on custom making ship models of the Batavia and San Felipe Galleons. This then increased to additional orders for a further two model historical model ships of the Borobodur and Perahu vessels and lastly, late in 2004, a Singalese model sailing boat.
The entire project continued to undego many design changes and even resulted in the change of size/scale of the model ship Batavia. All accommodated without problem by PSM. They worked very professionally and did significant research on the later commissioned model ships as our client had little information on these historical ships.
Constant delays and our clients change of mind on needs, finishing, ageing of the model ships etc added complexities to already difficult tasks, but in the end we received on time very excellent wooden ship models, highly detailed and fine finishing. The shipping and packing was excellent, and all fiveship models received after a near 3 week journey by sea were without damage.
We found Rashid and his staffs' service to be very helpful, timely and professional in every respect. We will and hope to use them again on other projects and further commissions for this Museum as it expands and creates new displays. The general quality, service and reliability has proved its worth in using them over less expensive options, but in saying that we still find them to be highly competitive and value for money. We would recommend them to any other prospective client for the provision of high quality maritime ship models.
Best Regards,Clive Miners, Director.

Re: Supply offive historical ship models for Hong Kong's Maritime Museum
Premier Ship Models won the contract to research and build to scale a collection of highly detailed world class transportation modelboats that would enhance the atmosphere and convey the storyline at the 'Madeira Story Centre' in Funchal Portugal.
The 'HMS Endeavour', in particular is an outstanding well crafted display historical wooden ship model, which is proving to be of great interest to the visitors to the Island.

Re: SevenShip Models, Aquila Airways, La Normandie, Caravel, Bremen Cog,HMS Endeavour, HMS Northumberland & Great Eastern.
When confronted with two projects for the BBC 'Ancestors' both requiring detailed model ships, and both with a tight budget and limited timescale, I was initially at a loss. Fortunately a quick search on the web introduced the BBC to Premier Ship Models.
Having met with Rashid to discuss my requirements, objectives and timescales, I was sincerely astonished with both his enthusiasm and the detailed quality of his company's shipmodels.
Despite an almost impossible schedule, his extraordinary team of craftsfolk managed to deliver '2 x 8 feet' ship models of the HMS Beagle and HMS Bellona -on time and more importantly on budget!!
I greatly look forward to working with the team of true professionals on another project very shortly.

The ship models are exceptional, everyone just loves them, floating in the air. Merima (Finnish company) Marine Interior Solutions commissioned twenty ship models at 1.5 metres long each, to be hung from the ceiling of a new Cruise Liner 'Miracle' for the Caribbean Cruise Line company.

Dear Rehaz Rashid
My ship arrived today and I just wanted to send you a brief e-mail to let you both know how pleased I am with the quality and the professional way it was packed to assure it would arrive safely. I know if you check my original order forms you will see that they date back as far as October 19, 2006 and I want you to know that it was well worth the wait and I would do it all over again if you would assure me the very same master model maker would build my next order as well. You both should be very proud of the individuals who work for you behind the scenes where the models are assembled. I am currently building my own new home and I plan to display my new model in a very prominent location and I will be send you photographs so you can see just how proud I am of your workmanship.
I look forward to placing my order for the Mashallah very soon. I promise to stay in touch.

I just wanted to thank you for all your help with my requests on the Victory. Yesterday we placed an order for the Corel model.

Once again thank you for your help and prompt attention.

Presently the ship is the centrepiece of my dining table where I intend to keep her over the Xmas season so that as many people as possible can see her.

Dear Premier ship Models,
Today, I received the HMS Beagle. The ship was in excellent condition and met all my expectations. I was especially pleased with the fact that the life boats were painted white and not left natural. I beleive this is more accurately represents the Beagle of the day.
I could not be happier. Thank you for the excellent quality and service.

Thank you for confirming my order. Although I am not able to tell you
where and how I found your web, since I've been browsing all the world to find
aproper one for me in the past few days, I have lost memory of where and
how I got there.
But one thing I can tell you is, I have looked all internet model ship seller. USA, CA, South Africa, Russian, Vietnam... Finally, Ibelieve I found this one is for me. In term ofquality, pricing,service.. thank you for your letter, I believe this model will be a satisfaction. I look forward to receive it in the near future.
Liu Yu Shian, Buyer of Sovereign of the Seas New Platinum Model ( Taiwan Sept 06)
Rehana, Model arrived. Excellent model first class. Looks great. Good
quality. Just unfortunate that postage is very dear in comparison to the price
of the model but I suppose there is nothing we can do about that. Might be
worth thinking about buying any models all at once to save on postage. Probably
as cheap to send 2 or 3 models as it is to send one? Thank you very much for
kind attention.
Rehana--Success!
The Fed Ex tracking predicted redelivery for 10:30 on 9/1, so I came home from work in the hopes of intercepting the package.It arrived at exactly 10:30!
Haven't opened it as I have to return to work, but the Fed Ex driver complimented you on your packaging. He was particularly taken with the outside bubble wrap cushioning the contents.
Thanks.
Jane Mac Millan , Buyer HMS Victory Model Ship 3 ( USA Sept 06)
Many thanks for the prompt despatch of the model of "Bounty" -
this went down very well as a birthday gift. very pleased indeed.

I found your website through an extensive search using Google; I looked
an many other sites that also construct model ships, including the Amerigo
Vespucci, but I felt the most comfortable with your quality and what you had to
say about your product on the website.
I have never purchased a model ship before [this being my first] but it has always been a dream of mine since I was a boy. I wait with great anticipation to receive your work of art.
May I ask you one question before you begin construction? I see that you offer the same model, for the same price, in a "painted" series and I have opted for the partially painted series. In your professional opinion what do you think looks the best? Perhaps that is an unfair question to ask since I am sure that both are magnificent but I really grappled with this decision and if you leaned towards the painted model I would make that small change to my order.
I look forward to hearing from you.Very truly yours,
Donald Whittaker, The Designer Guy , Buyer of Amerigo Vespucci Model Ship (partially painted) ( USA July 06)
Fantastic! I can't wait to see them Rehaz! They will be on
prominent display in my family. I will gladly give you a reference (and

Hi,
Many thanks, Angela Spalding, Buyer of Anna 2 Model Boat kit (June 2006)
The ship model(HMS Bounty)arrived on Tuesday this week. I'm most
impressed by it. It's beautiful. The workmanship is superb.
This is something I've waited a long time for (I originally started looking some 15 years ago when I first set up in business). I've absolutelyno hesitation in recommending your company and its model ships (and have already done so)- service was excellent and the ship beyond praise. I wait with impatience the arrival of the second ship model (HMS Surprise)!
As to how I found Premier Ship Models - it was by searching in the main search of Google. It was last year and I can't remember the key words I used though I think I had several goes. As I mentioned earlier this is something I've been looking for for a long time but it wasn't until recently that I used the internet - should have thought of that earlier.

UK Buyer of Flying Fish ship model (March 2006)
Hi Rashid,
I hope I find you well !
I have just placed an order on your website for a model of HMS Bellona,
this time for myself. Having seen the great job you did on HMS Surprise,
and the special offers now available, I just could not resist. I'm quite
convinced this could become addictive and I think you should issue a health
warning on the website!
Can I ask that you supply the model with the all the square sails rolled up and
only the fore and aft ones set (as on the model of HMS Surprise).
This appeals to my sense of symmetry and I think looks aesthetically more
pleasing.
Thank you
Alan.
We are all very pleased with our finished model. You have been very nice
and very easy to work with. The model was completed to our specifications in a
wonderful, timely manner and is a gift we will be very proud to give. It is
amazing that we have accomplished this feat across continents, using only
e-mail and websites.
You have been very responsive and receptive to our needs and have been very
accommodating. I would highly recommend you to others looking for similar
models. And I thank you.
I was able to show my mother the pictures you sent today, and we agree
that it looks very good. We very excited to present it to him.

Happy New Year to you, it is the year of the 'Dog'.

I was very pleased to collect my custom ship model of
the three masted barque Brier
Holme the other day. The ship model is wonderful and is a very
accurate copy of the original vessel. The detail is marvellous and all the
workmanship is superb.
To make this custom ship model from photographs only, and no plans as such, is a great achievement. It really is beautiful and admired by my friends. You have created a ship model of this 1876 vessel which will be handed down through the generations.
Yours Sincerely, Michael Bowyer ( UK Buyer of custom model Brier Holme, May 2005)Thanks for the information on the display case. The HMS Surprise model ship arrived in perfect condition, the day before my husband's birthday. It is amazingly beautiful and detailed; he was speechless when he saw it. He spent about an hour exploring it that first day, using his reference texts on O'Brian's novels to examine every detail. He was very moved by the gift and the skill and craftsmanship of your ship model builders. He's an engineer, and was particularly impressed with the way you designed and packaged the crate the HMS Surprise arrived in. He's planning on sending you and your employees his own message to express his admiration and thanks personally.
Thanks again for all your hard work, both in building this wonderful
shipmodel and in getting it to us on time. Your work made my husband's
birthday magical for him and for our family.
Please thank Rashid for me as well.

Our ship model arrived last week while we were away. It arrived in
excellent condition and looks very nice. As the third model ship in my small
collection and first from
England,
I consider it very special.
Thanks for your help throughout the ordering process.
Regards, David ( USA Buyer of Albatross, 2004)
My father took delivery some time ago of a ship model for the Harvey from
yourselves. I managed to see it for myself a short while ago. All I can say is
the ship model is even better than what I had expected from the pictures on
your site, she's a masterpiece! The finesse of the detail and the grandeur your
shipmodel projects are nothing short of jaw-dropping. I hope I've
conveyed my thanks properly here.
Received myHMS Surprise yesterday (11 June 2004). Many thanks for this fine model ship and the good service. The ship model packing was excellent, do not know how you could have done any better.
Respectfully, Ralph Wiechert ( USA Buyer of HMS Surprise, June 2004)
I am writing to tell you how pleased I am with my model boat of HMS Surprise.
I have owned the ship for some time now but the pleasure I get each time I walk past has not diminished at all. The model boat always draws very complimentary comments from friends and other visitors, both for the dramatic impact and standard of workmanship. I am sure that HMS Surprise will not be the only thing I buy from you. Keep up the good work!
Mike McSean -Metropolitan Police Sergeant ( UK Buyer of HMS Surprise, 2003)You are a star! Fantastic! It just looked so good. I couldn't believe just how good when I saw the ship models on Saturday! Anyway..who's to say she wasn't copper bottomed when re-fitted at some point!!!
Very kindest regards, The Brood ( UK Buyer of a Custom Built Model Ship of the Superbe, 2003)
This is just to let you know that the Hourglass nautical gift was a great success at the presentation. The recipient was hugely pleased and I passed your contact details on to several people. Thank-you once again for your patience with me and for getting it all sorted out satisfactorily for the presentation.
Our best wishes,Martin ( UK Buyer of Brass 30 minute Hourglass, 2003)
Just a quick note to let you know that bothAlbatross and America docked safely at Longboat Key, and both look great. Thank you so much for your kind attention to all this. The model boats Albatross model boat is a lovely little ship, although she does look a little lost in our apartment. With the benefit of hindsight I probably should have got the full sized ship model of the USS Constitution, but I was a little apprehensive about the size. Anyway, I'll save that for another day. Once again, many thanks. I am showing your brochure to all my friends.
With best regards. Martin Vandersteen ( USA Buyer of Albatrossand America, 2003)
Thanks for the model boat, our M.D was pleased. I have been approached by another member of staff who has shown an interest in the boat. I mentioned to him the model boat was with a special discount.
Regards Gordon ( UK Buyer of HMS Victory, 2003)
Great. I am very happy with my model ship of the HMS Endeavour.

Just thought I'd let you know that my model boat arrived safely and is absolutely stunning. I'm amazed at the quality and detail and can't praise Premier Ship Models enough.
Best wishes and thanks again Steve Thomas ( UK Buyer of HMS Surprise, 2003)
Thank you so very much for the amazing model! When I came round to the showroom a few weeks ago, I was astonished by the quality of the ship models on display and couldn't help wondering and getting quite excited about the ship model I had ordered. I have to say I was stunned when I saw it, not only by the size but the quality! Thank you so much for not only providing a truly first class model ship, but also the very friendly and helpful service. I could not recommend you highly enough. I hope you have an excellent Boat Show, and look forward to seeing you on your return. I got her home safe and sound and she is now sitting on my table in the front room. I spent all the journey home just looking at it!!! Every time I pass by on the way to the Kitchen, I just stop and look (WOW!!).
Very Kindest Regards and best wishes to you all, Brendan ( UK Buyer of Superbe, 2003)
Our ship model arrived today, and Matt is thrilled, he loves it! The husband of one ofour friends may be interested in ordering one of your model ships (it's always the guys, eh?). We'll give him your e-mail address when he's decided.
Thank you for everything! Marleigh Driscoll ( USA Buyer of HMS Surprise, 2003)
The two MayFlowership models arrived this afternoon in very good shape and they look wonderful. We were so pleased they arrived before Christmas. Thanks so much.
Karel Buck ( USA Buyer of MayFlower, 2002)
Our ship model arrived yesterday, is very beautiful and in perfect condition. Thanks so much for all your help with this. If you ever get a chance, would you be kind enough to mail me a catalogue. Will make sure to pass it around to friends in addition to pointing them to your website. Thanks again for all your trouble, I know this wasn't easy.
Kind regards Perry Floyd ( USA Buyer of HMS Bounty, 2002)
I thought that I would let you know that the HMS Victory model ship arrived safely the other day. Even after seeing the level of finish and attention to detail of your other ship models, when we met on your stand at the London Boat Show, I was still immensely impressed and pleased with the actual ship. Thank you for taking the time to add the additional paint to the hull. It was certainly worth waiting for and will now be a happy and permanent reminder of my childhood in Pompey. I hope PSM continues to succeed as it deserves (hopefully helped by our picture in Canal Boat Magazine this month!!) and I would be most grateful if you would send me a copy of your catalogue so so that I can 'spread the word' to others who will no doubt be equally impressed when I put my HMS Victory ship model on display.
Many thanks, once again, Matt & Jane Strange ( UK Buyer of HMS Victory, 2002)
Customer Feedback from Exhibition
We tend to be deluged by visitors at shows who are infinitely complimentary to our model ship collection. In essence, the two things that are always commented on were the excellent quality of the ship models and the reasonableness of our prices. Please see below for some brief quotes.
I thought that your model ships and the excellent range were about the best commercial model ships that I have seen.
Maritime Journalist at London Boat Show 2003
The beauty about them is almost poetic.
Buyer of the Sovereign of the Seas at London Boat Show 2003
My husband is over the moon with his birthdays surprise – usually an impossible feat.
Buyer of the HMS Endeavour 2003
This model boat will now look fantastic on my mantelpiece.
Buyer of the Riva Super Aquarama at London Boat Show 2002
Works of art - all of them.
Buyer of the HMS Victory at Southampton Boat Show 2002
If you were at Cowes last week (the 150th anniversary of the America 's Cup), you would have been leaving there with no stock!
Feedback from three judges of the 'Fellowship of Shipwrights Society', at the International Festival of the Seas (IFOS) 2001
Whilst your quality is impressive, you might be letting yourself down by the reasonableness of your prices. Rest assured that we will commit to the same prices - it is part of our raison-d'etre.
International Festival of the Seas 2001 Buyer
We were lucky to have you as our neighbour, and as a result we had more traffic and hence more sales.
Thank you from WHSmith and Riverbank Studio
"Very very beautiful and affordable too. You will do well".
International Festival of the Seas 2001 Buyer
We had a bonus visit us from the Grand Turk – he was very impressed with the sails, riggings and masts of our ship models, which was a considerable delight to us. In his own words, the technical accuracy of the model ships is excellent as this is one part of model making that lets other manufacturers down.
