Looks like it should be there soon. It would be nice if they got small orders out quicker. I'm surprised it was sent HK post and not Singapore post, SP is slower and usually takes 2 weeks to get to me.

My last order $88 sent HK post

I have had orders get here in a week especially if their shipped EMS.

I'm guessing some of you have modeler friends with huge budgets and that must be nice, but here I have friends that are in their 50's strapped with mortgage/college funds/etc. and young modelers whose parents don't have alot of funds that I like to help out.

If you've ever unboxed a radio in for repair that is a low end unit from someone from another country it makes you more understanding for those on a budget.

I wish we would not insult each other on here, Its mean,,I do not believe anyone is a $100 shill here, it just seems like it would be a waste of money, I don't think they would spend the money, why would they? easier to just put the money into advertising to reach 100,000 then 50?

yes, those postal times seem pretty normal for standard postage.. I honestly have no idea about any $100 club. this thread is the first time I have heard of it... but it sounds like an urban myth created by the HK haters.

Besides, I wouldn't post anything dishonest even for $20,000... As Arnie said in ''The Last Stand'' - ''My integrity is not for sale...''

Yeah well those postal times don't include the seven days that Hobby King had it before they shipped it. The postal time is also such that there is no way the shills get their stuff delivered in less than ten days from the time they order it. That is simply nonsens.

And as for hundred buck club, you did an awful lot of defending when a simple (single) rebuttal would have sufficed, I'm remined of my Shakespear and something about protesting too much. But with Headsup Rc and and a dozen other reputable dealers with low low prices I can't imagine whay you would buy anything from those pirates at HK, especially since it takes forever to get here.
