+1 billion! I bought my radio, RC8Be, and MMM through Tower, on separate orders. Since I'm part of the club, free shipping (as Gregg noted), plus up to $60 off each order, so I've saved a big chunk of money. This doesn't even count the MERV and a ton of other parts I've bought from there (hence my asking what you guys thought of Reedy batteries ) before. Although I did notice that the last email I received from them only went up to $50 off.

I do try to support my local hobby shop, but there really isn't one local to me. The closest "good" one is 45 min to 1 hour away. I'll buy parts from the local place close to me, but if I have a large parts order, it's usually Tower or A Main that gets my order. I've ordered quite a bit from A Main as well, and I've always been pretty happy with both Tower and A Main.
