I never bought a tank from him, only parts. His communication was always poor at best, but he used to be very trustworthy. Things seem to have changed though. I stopped ordering from the website because it seemed like what is listed on the site was something he had to track down as opposed to the eBay listing that were in stock. A few times, I waited the full 45 days and never got a response, just a refund on items never shipped. I don't know if it's a language barrier, that he's overwhelmed with volume or what, but I know I've been ordering from him for years, but the last few transactions have not been good.
Try Banzai Hobby if you don't get your Tiger. They have been great when dealing with tanks, landing on my porch usually within 4 days of ordering.
I too thought 56010 was still available after the uproar over them announcing it as discontinued. It's a shame if it really is gone, that was and still is, their best.
