Default RE: When making a purchase

I had been leery of ordering things from Hobby King due to all the bad reports about them.It seemed most of the complaints were from ordering from their international - Hong Kong warehouse. I have placed 5 orders from their USA warehouse only ordering items in stock and I have received the orders in 3-5 days. I have hobby stores locally and shop at them for items in stock, if needed to order items from Great Planes I order myself through Tower because I receive it quicker and cheaper than the LHS. Another local LHS who deals mainly with Horizon products prices their items at higher than MAP I dont deal with; I go to another LHS who orders me the item at 10% discount and doesnt charge me the shipping. You have to shop around. One regional chain Hobby People are selling powermaster 15% for $10, I guess I will be stocking up this week.
