    hey!

    welli've been gone for a while to due serious training, and general business, but im dying to get my truck goin again, all i need as mentioned before is the spur gear, went to halfords, and got told to go on hpi.co.uk and order it from there, which, is a loada crap, as #1 the site is not for rc's, and #2 hpiracing.co.uk is the correct address but they dont ship parts, however they do give a list of places (halfords, wrongfully i think) included, but i contacted another place (based in england and got told they wouldnt ship here, as im not a business, so i have been left with near one option (apart of course from the online shops) boys toys, anyone know if they are ok priced/ do they actually have the savage parts? il lbe ringin them on monday but i might be able to purchase one on modelsport before hand if i knew,

    cheers,

    nlc

    Another place thats worth a look is www.modelsinmotion.co.uk
    I have found that you get the bits much faster. Somtimes I have been waiting for over a month for stuff to arrive with modelsport, but its never taken more than 5 days with MIM.

    i get most of my hop-up's from ebay.com prices are very good take for example a new hpi polished pipe shipped for only $29 its the best for bargins also try
    www.towerhobbies.com
    very good shipping rates and they have almost every part going.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,763 ✭✭✭g5hn710m4xpdwy


    was going to ask you did you get it ;-)
    towerhobbies is good, but, they are based in america which can lead to long waits for parts but they are good ;-)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 851 ✭✭✭stephenmarr


    have to say anything myself or my brother ordered came within the week so i cannot complain about them


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,763 ✭✭✭g5hn710m4xpdwy


    true, but they *can get bad, not always ;-) and if possible to buy localy id rather pay the euro extra to buy it and fit it within a day or 2 or have to wait a week or 2, sadly tehres no hpi stockests i think :(
