I have recently purchased the Albatross America and Germantown and plan on getting the Harpers Ferry and Widley Island so I do like Albatross models, the mast error on the Princeton just needed to be noted.
That being said I may still buy the Princeton since I do have the old PE mast set on hand and can replace the two gun turrets with Shapeways or from a Hobbyboss Tico kit. However, not everyone may notice the mast issue and then be even more unhappy with Albatross when they receive a model with such an error. If the error is noted, folks can decide to buy or not.
Mr Fowler's comments are a model review. These are welcome, good or bad, and should always be welcome on this site. The details of this model are not state of the art.
Too bad Argos didn't get this look model out.
In a free market nobody forces you to buy a product you don't like be it through price, accuracy, material or a high carbon footprint.
Manufacturers you have gone out of business because they didn't satisfy market and customer requirements far outnumber those who've been in business for more than three generations.
If you don't like it don't buy it. It's that simple.
