RE: hobbycity delay
Yeah, be patient. I have to say that most of my shipments have been pretty quick, but I never order anything from them if I need it right away.
There have been other folks on these boards who have been frustrated (understatement) by this same situation where stuff is in stock but doesn't ship right away.
Also, they don't always notify you when things ship. Sometimes the stuff will show up at my house before I get a ship notification.
