The employees working there were all sticking decals onto their cars. Hehe, and they had no GPM parts on their cars.
That's why i sold my gpm stuff on my mini-z to a friend... i'm using mostly kyosho factory stuff now... those GPM options cost an arm, a leg, and some other vital organs..."Never Again!!!"

It took me 3 visits to MK to decide to buy the alloy GPM drive shaft for my TL01....everywhere was out of stock of the Tamiya carbon shaft........

1 week after I bought the GPM shaft another shop opened and had loads of Tamiya carbon shaft. Price of GPM alloy $60.....Price Tamiya Carbon $55......go figure!!!!

*sigh* I still have my GPM parts, I'm guessing there not worth anything, considering they're all broke.

Well, you can buy another $60 GPM TL-01 shaft and you got a $120 pair of fancy chopsticks...hehehehe

Oh they're still worth something, you can melt it down and make it into...:

-balance weights for ballasting your car
-dummy transponder
-caps for teeth...?!
-shiny sinkers for fishing...

or my personal favorite: dont melt it and make them into wind chimes! hehehehe
