Status: offline 		Hi Shaun,

No problems when buying from Tower here in Oz other than the freight for the larger items. With the Oz $ the way it is against the US $ smaller items like servos, etc, etc are much cheaper. No additional charges to pay and GST doesn't apply as the items wern't purchased in Oz.

Not having a local hobby shop to support I buy from Tower, Tates and Col Taylor. The delivery times from Tower are often quicker than the Oz stores.

Cheers,

Colin

Status: online 		I have used tower many times however in my experience the shipping from tower is usually slower than most other places. I believe this is because of the postal service they use rather than the slow shipment of tower.
