I bought stuff through them on ebay and their online store before. I have had nothing but good experiences with him. The only issue I ever had was when I won a finished Lancia shell off ebay and he sent it in half of the tt-01 box so it was a little messed up. He apologized and hooked me up afterwards to make it up though.

well thats good hear! i placed a order on the 6th and my card has been charged, but the status on my order is still " Processed."

before placing the order i emailed them just to make sure they had the parts in stock and the replied very quickly stating that they were in stock. ive tried emailing them a few times just to see if the items have been shipped, but nothing so far!

I ordered from them once. Took about 2 weeks of them keeping my money for them to realize that they didn't have what I ordered (even though it said "In Stock") so they sent me my money back. Not exactly the best experience, but at least they didn't keep it, I guess...

Well, I've been waiting a week so far and my order is still "Processing". Now I'm wondering how many races it'll be untill I can get my parts since the season starts tomorrow...... I'm glad I paid the extra $$$$ for the fast shipping.

I tried to once. They were messing around and being a little shady it seemed so I cancelled my order. I don't remember the details but had something to do with paypal and the verified address (which mine was).

I have used them a few times with no problems but that last time my order sat at the proccessing stage for around a week.

I emailed them and their reply stated some items were out of stock.
My options were to either stick with it, have what they had or have a refund.

They sent what they had and refunded the backorders.


I came away satisfied if only a little peeved at their live online stock quantities.

Thanks for the info, I think I might email them to see what's going on.
