Am I missing something?? What in the hobby-of-rip-offs-he LL makes them think anyone would pay that much? Let alone how they are still in business? Or am I missing something? [sm=confused.gif]

The prices are in Australian dollars... think thats not bad? At the bottom right of the page, click on "Currency" and choose US dollars.... WOW.

I love how they add the correct pricing part in small print. Excellent marketing strategy [sm=50_50.gif]

Hah , yeah I saw the 18MT... How about a $848.88 Revo?!!? Even if you take off 20% (down to $678.40) that will still not be the "reasonable" prices we're used to!!! But then I do remember someone from Australia complaining about higher prices on r/c stuff as a whole on another thread a while back.

Actually the 18t w/o the "coupon register thing" is $450.
