Ed and Todd give GREAT customer service. From fellow modellers TO fellow modellers. Nitroplanes/Raidentech...they are NOT modellers...they are merchants. And they give LOUSY customer service.
Nitromodels, well, if they do not want to ship overseas, too much trouble, well...they will lose some customers, like you. Maybe they don't use UPS, maybe Fedex Ground(some stuff I got from them, it was fedex ground, if I remember right)...but if they don't want to ship overseas, I understand. I you do not want to spend money with them because of that, I understand THAT, too. I think others will carry this airplane, for sure, and be more than willing to take your money. Good rule of thumb: never beg anybody to take your money! So I understand totally where you are coming from!
