That should be illegal! Glad I don't live north of the border!

For sh**s and giggles, I threw one in my cart just to see what the shipping would be for me. Still shows free shipping! I feel for you guys living up north!

Just paid $22 for one, SCX10V2 plastic version takeoff was $39. Couldn't ignore that price difference.

I've got a few, they are all the same pretty much. So far no issues with any of them.

Nope, it definitely said $16.

Must be gas prices for delivery.

I got one off Ali Express a while back. I found it made my rig noisier so I went back to a plastic one. No complaints about the quality though https://a.aliexpress.com/_mPv7rAE

I just ordered the Vanquish trans case because they are now back in stock. I like to use quality parts and I want to support American manufacturing as much as possible.
