Default Ordering at Nitroplanes??

Hi guys!

I`m a bit confused.... the case is that I have tryed to order a Falcon 120 from NitroPlanes. They say that USPS will not ship because the package is to big (this I understand) and they just cancelled my order.... this I do not understand. I just called them and suggested TNT ore UPS, but they refused to sell me the airplane! Is it something I do not know about shipping in US?

Can somebody explain this to me pleace?

It sounds like they don't want to do the paperwork involved in the international shipping. Take a look around, plenty of other online places sell the same airplanes. I'm sure they will gladly ship it to you. You might even find one in europe which could make it even less expensive to ship.

I've also heard that some countries have size limits on packages so Nitro Plane may have no choice but to refuse the sale. Not sure if this is true or not though.<br type="_moz" />

Take a look here:

http://fly-model.en.made-in-china.co...catalog-1.html

These guys either manufacture the Nitro version or have one just like it (both copies of something else i would imagine).

I don't know if you can purchase just one airplane from the site but it will give you an idea of what to look for.<br type="_moz" />

Check the BBB complaints against these guys,be thankful they won't ship to you. You used to could get a look at how they run the business,but now nit-planes thread ,is modrated closely,anything negative,will be deleted. Do a search here and you will find that its a good thing you didn't buy

With all the posts on this forum about Nitro Plane's service why would anyone bother ordering anything from them. Must be all the pretty pictures and the too good to be true prices. Imade the mistake once when I first started flying and didn't know any better. But only once. Good luck.

Chris,
All I can suggest is clicking links from http://www.google.com/search?q=falcon+120 until you find someone who has it in stock and is willing to ship to your location.

Most of the links I clicked seem to point back to nitro, or were "sold out"

This one may be the manufacturer or Chinese ditributor

I have no idea if they sell single units or if you have to buy a bunch.

Under "Payment and Shipping Terms"
Price is 100-200 per set at the port of Ningbo
I'd guess it varies based on volume.
It appears you have to contact them for info. The wording on the site makes me think they do not sell individual units.
