Angry Hobby E Store

I ordered some parts from these people on Feb 20-the site said parts were in stock.I still don't have my parts-when I check tracking # it says order shipped on Feb 28.Why 8 days between ordering and shipping?When I checked further,they told me parts had to come from China!No mention of this when I ordered the parts.Hobby E Store boasts of fast shipping because they are in U.S.-what a bunch of malarky!I certainly won't be ordering from these people again!

Re: Hobby E Store

Thank you for that info. I have found that with some other shops that have walkera parts. ben waiting for ever for my new and backup rx's. tracking said they are almost to me. ( 1 state away) but that was with the express shiping. Ya know the 3 day one. Its ben almost 2 weeks. that 3 day parts is just from the time it gets out the door. they take there sweet time on order prossessing. I have ben told that rc and me realy keeps parts in stock, adn has fast delivery times. The seem to have some realy good prices.

Cool Re: Hobby E Store

Well, now it's March 20-still no parts.The excuse I get is parts had to come from China.I ordered some other parts from a seller in Hong Kong 10 days ago and they arrived today.So,Hobby E Store-1 month still waiting,order direct from H.K. and get parts in 10 days!Ordering direct from Hong Kong not only was faster but the shipping was cheaper!I got better service from overseas than I did from a U.S. based supplier.

Angry Re: Hobby E Store

Hobby E Store now says they don't know what happened to my shipment and are checking with USPS- Wonderful! Somehow parts from China get here but parts from San Francisco wind up in the twilight zone!

Re: Hobby E Store

I stopped ordering from them for that reason . I now order from HOBBY4LESS.com. They ship quick, usually 2-3 days to get here and I am in Bklyn NY.

Cool Re: Hobby E Store

Now Hobby E Store is "reprocessing" my order and promises to ship it asap.They say my shipment was "lost in air" whatever that means.At least they respond to my emails but I will never order from them again.I checked Hobby4less they didn't have the parts I needed at this time.
