Mister Pink, all that means is that some companies will follow the rules, others do not. When ingetbmybstuff from AE, it come USPS. If there is a lithium battery in the box, it's FedEx. I have asked and been told its because of shipping regulations. I don't know what FedEx is doing that the others aren't. The boxes are never labelled as dangerous goods or have any special markings on them.

Hey all, please be sure to register for racing this weekend at Karz.ca. It will speed things up a great deal.

Also, please welcome Curtis Webster as the newest exec for Karz. He will be our man in charge of physical assets, maintainence, repairs and generally making the track work for us.

They'll probably cancel it.
I emailed them a month ago and they only ship USPS. They politely told me NO shipping to Canada.
In another thread the guys order was cancelled.

Well just checked my email and I have confirmation from hobbypartz my three gen ace lipos are in the mail and on their way to my house. That will be the fifth time in the last couple of months I ordered lipos after I was told that hobbypartz will no longer ship to Canada. Well lucky me I guess, now what to do with all these lipos I didnt really need

Way to go Curtis !! I think you deserve a a gift for stepping up to the plate to help make KARZ a great club. How about a free GensAce lipo for your mini. As soon as my latest order hits my mail box ones all yours

Seems like the shipments are based more on who packs the orders, on what day and what they declare the contents to be. It also depends on USPS employees doing their jobs diligently (Yeah, f'in right.) and the various machinations of he whole system to sync.

If anyone along the line let's something slip, or causes something to "slip", the packages get through. EG: There are certain products that aren't allowed to even cross the airspace of certain countries, never mind land there, but if you have to get something, somewhere, for the sake of profit or pride, sometimes you break the rules. Not that I ever did. Just saying.

Anyway, register for Saturday! We've got 2 solid heats of mini and 1 each of 12 scale and touring stock. More, more, more!

I think your spot on. Email a company and ask them if they will ship an item that is not aloud to be shipped of course they will reply with a no. Because there is now a record of the transaction.
I just pick all the lipos that I want, put then in my cart and pay though pay pal.dont request a reciept and don't add any extra comments, and max two weeks later I have my lipos. I have also had 100% success with tire traction compounds that are not suppose to be shipped.

Congrats Curtis!

But where will you find the time to “maintain” your fleet of cars for you and your kids?
