Actually, this is the nature of a 'drop ship' business. the order is placed through a retailer, who does not stock the item. Instead the order is transferred directly to the wholesaler who then ships the product out to the customer directly.

Horizon is a bit draconian in areas where money is concerned so no doubt Killer is no longer able to offer the prices they used to. Instead, they are likely forced to charge the same prices as are on the Horizon website.

Brushless, whatever happened, I hope this is for the best. I really feel like I need to apologize to you. I used to buy from you exclusively, but when my LHS started offering nice discounts on parts for our club, as well as help support our club, I had to start buying locally. Killer Hobbies has always been just that - Killer. All the best, man.
