Although I try to support my little LHS because I have a couple great ones,I dont blame you for your choices considering what you've got to deal with. EVERY hobby shop I go to now matches Tower Hobbies prices,AND as long as I order by tuesday,I'll have it by thursday or friday. And any hobby shop that doesnt offer "friendly" customer service now days had best start looking into other buisiness alternatives given the dying hobby shop buisiness. They need all the buisiness they can get! And they better not try to rip people off(many do).
