Hiya all.

I was going to upgrade from my MSX to another 'fashionable' box but not seen one that I like (or can afford!!) so going to stick with my matchbox.

Anyone got a cover or additional trays/units for sale as I'm struggling to get hold of any?
Please don't tell me to e-mail the name on this site, I have with no reply so not exactly confident in their service!!

Cheers all.

Mick.

mick dont know if this would interest you but maver have a stax system out, exactly the same as the pyramid stax system only a different colour(they are actually made by matchbox if you didnt already know) and the pins on the back are further apart and these fit onto the msx!

reason i know this is i tried the maver on my dads msx!

if you dont mind the colour difference you can add on all different configurations of trays and winder trays under you msx frame

Matt.
I have the MSD model which I believe to be the same dimensions????
Matchbox basically told me that the pin locations may have changed over the years and so need to take the box to them. For me, not worth the journey as what happens when I want something else.
If they haven't got dealers in the south, thats their problem so I will be looking to buy a new box.
Lastagain, can't see any ad for you mate??

I had a small problem with my box and they changed it but fortunatly I dont live to far from them.But they gave me a few odds and sods to cover my fuel.
They are a good company to deal with
