|  Horizon Hobby WTF
I just recieved word that Horizon is not dealing w/ Axial anymore. My friend owns a Hobby Store and he had ordered a Wriath For me. Now we are finding out that all orders placed through Horizon will not get processed  |

Stormer Hobbies FTW over Horizon, I've never bought anything form Horizon. Stormer Hobbies is an RCC supporter as well.  |

Yep, I order from my buddy cause he takes care of me. I didn't realize who his dealer was. I'm a mechanic and I have been working on his cars for years. He brings me business so I do the same | |

 I still wouldn't order from Horizon though.Quote:
The correct wording of the statement is actually, "Axial is not dealing with Horizon anymore." | ||

There is another thread in here about horizon selling berg axles/kits. Which might be a reason for the split. Unless I read it wrong.

Tell your local shops to get hooked up with SK Motion if they need a solid line to Axial kits and parts. Robert has always done me well, even though I only order a few kits here and there for myself.

Uh, say what? Tower Hobbies is owned by Great Planes.....always has been. Tower Hobbies has been the biggest slap in the face to Hobby Shops nationwide for over 2 decades. It was quite often Tower would be selling item A for $29.99.........but as a Hobbyshop, to buy it from Great Planes to sell in your store it was $32.99........good stuff. Sure keeps the hobby shops in business. I am not sure whats going on with Horizon, but they unlike Great Planes have always been pretty good to the hobbyshops, even when they added their webstore, they didn't undercut dealers.
