Babexx,

I actually ordered an HPI Type SS from Towerhobbies and It took about two weeks to get here because of the bulk. I actually had to pick it up from the post office and pay my $100 customs/tax fee...

i have ordered around $3000 AUD from them so far and not one of them toook more than two weeks. Regular items take aroun 7 to 10 days, but bulkier items take longer as they hold it customs for a couple of days... but i never got a dud item from towerhobbies... always a great source if you can't find anything you want in your local hobby shop...

Check out www.ozryderz.com I did a review on the Type SS...
