Any way we can get this one deleted Shane??

Toledo gas on 6/5.
Do you think Platinum is for sale. Be a good job for Jake.

this thread isnt here merely because you messed up on shipping somthing.. to quote rob... it IS here because you blatently lied to a fellow member/customer. You are a bad seller.. you said you would make good and you havnt... you are not a good person.

I paypalled you 307.00 as per your request.

Also to note...
You now have the car. Damage is done. Your point has been made and now I think everyone needs to move on.
Keith will not do business with Platinum.

Most of the people on here Crying, about how bad of a Place Platinum Hobbies is. Are the same people I seen 6 Months ago Kissing Bio and Phou's A$$es, so they Could get Discounts at there Hobby Shop! It is no secret that there is not very much Money in a Indoor RC Track. So, in Turn, The Owners have to Rent Buildings in "Not so Great" ends of Town. I have been Racing on and off for Almost 20 Years and I have yet to See a RC Track In Muirfield. I Remember Racing at Nicholas Mini Baja on East Main St, IT WAS HARDCORE. But, "Nobody Complained" Must be a new Group of people into RC Nowadays. In fact....I Know it is.

I'm planning on coming back to Platinum in the fall. I am hoping for a strong 12th scale class this season. Get your cars ready!
All in all, I've had a great time there. The competition is tough, but it isn't out of hand. You can show up and have fun, or go all hardcore and pull your hair out! Your choice! Bio and Phou have been great to me. Fair prices and most items in stock... that's all I can ask.
As far as the security issue goes, I spoke with Phou about this on Sunday. They have been in contact with the mall on this and they are working on a plan to get some security. I'm sure that they will work out something reasonable. Between that and the racers keeping a good watch, it will be fine.
I remember racing at Nicholas Mini-Baja. That is where I got my start. That it definitely an area of town that I would not normally frequent. But, we all showed up and had a lot of fun!
With the seasonal nature of indoor racing, you do have to watch the rent very closely. If you try to get a shop in the area people want, race fees would have to be $50! It's all part of the trade-off. Tracks need a lot of square footage....
And as a wise (and cantankerous ) old man once said:
It's just a hobby, have fun racin'!
