The BEAT MY PRICE thread!
Everybody is always looking for a good deal, or the best price on something. I though it would be fun to start this thread out with an item, and then see if somebody else can find some place on the Internet that beats that price. No venders, or advertisers please! A MOD WILL DELETE YOUR POST. This is just for RCU members who are non venders or advertisers! I just thought it would be fun to to see who can actually find the best price on something. Kinda like a Treasure Hunt. Just something fun to try for those who want to participate, and in the process someone might find a better deal on something then they think they could have gotten. Again I will state! NO ADVERTISERS OR SELLERS should post here! If you as a regular member think you know a place with the best price we will try to find some place to beat it. No used items please, or auction items. If you can please include shipping information if available, because this should also be figured into a price. This is a ARF/RTF forum, so only things related to this please!
I will start this thread off with something off the top of my head from Tower Hobbies.
Howabout a 40 size yellow Carl Goldberg Cub for $174.99 -$15.00 coupon +$7.99 shipping = $167.98

Now who can beat that price?

OK, I'll play along.
Lanier Razor 40 - $99.99 + $8 handling fee = $108 to my door step
Seagull SuperStar 120 - $99.99 + tax + shipping = $118 to my door step
The things about good deals, they don't last. You have to move when you see them or they vanish.

You sure posted some good deals there, because I can't find anywhere outside Lanier itself that can top those prices! I'm going to do some more hunting, but sure looks like you might have found the best deal available anywhere on those two Planes.

Buy (2) or more ZDZ 50 NG's with pitts mufflers. $625 shipped each. You have to talk to someone there and ask for the price. They don't advertise it. I bought three and Mike threw in the prop drill jig. All this for $1875 shipped. That's over a $100 savings on each engine when you include the free prop jig and free shipping.

well post the link so we can check them out

I can show you my receipts for proof.
But that wont help you get one for that price.
Like I said, it's a deal becuase it doesn't last. Luckily I have a wife that likes to say, "Yeah, buy that one... it's cute." [8D]
And my mom said not to marry her. LOL

Cckangaroo, you asked for it, so here it is.
Lanier is now offering the Razor and a GMS 40 for $129.99. Enter the discount code, GMSRZR, when you check out. If you look at their website it shows the Razor for $129.99, but I guess if you order the engine also and put in the code it'll change the price. The sale ends Jan 8th.
I got mine already but plan on putting a Saito 72 or a Magnum 52 up front.
Enjoy

RE: The BEAT MY PRICE thread!
it was not on the internet. i found it in a hobby shop a little over a year ago.. i bought a sig 'somethin extra" arf for a $149.00. the shop owner had the arf on his shelf for a long time and could not sell it so he sold it to me for $149.00 plus tax . it was not until after i bought it i realized what a deal i got. tower hobbies was selling them for slightly over $200.00.!!!!!

e-bay -newyork grace is the seller of willshobby warbirds -copys of CMP
I got the hellcat for $69 plus $35 in shipping .
Go to ebay , hit in Nitro /gas powered rc planes , dont get emotionally attached to any bid and you will win .
I watched a zero go for $145 plus shipping (just the other day )because the buyer had to have it , when the same plane , same seller goes for $90 to $99 with shipping included .
So wait your turn , if its at $50 with 4 days left , leave it alone , that is way to high , you want one with $3.00 or $5.oo ect in bids , they will go for under $100 .
