Huge thanks for all the help and advice, and the ridiculously fast shipping. Ordered Monday afternoon, and it's here today. Now if my drive line parts would hurry up, I can install this thing!!

No the silver is not factory I did that so it would add some color break up when running.

I've sent a few emails and posted in another thread here. Trying to check the status of my motor that I needed rebuilt. And my warranty claim on my BRXL Waterproof. I appreciate it!

Same problem here, I've been sending emails for 2 weeks with no response. The order for two in stock items was placed on the 11/21 but I still haven't received them.

We lost our labor worker on the 5th and we are all spread too thin covering the extra. I've been off the computer and just making motors and training the new guy. I will make sure everything gets taken care of. We are just in a tough position at the worst time of year, it will take some extra time to fill all the orders and get the new guy up to pace.


Kinda sucks being on the edge of small company/ big company. When we lose one guy it really hurts everybody else. I haven't gotten a single task on my personal list done for weeks! We were set up to have all orders done within a few days of ordering on back Friday, and having a key team member decide to quit right after blew up all the planning.

completely understandable!!!! any one who doesn't understand the amount of craziness you vendors deal with regardless of time of year don't deserve a set of your amazing motors. Well sir you have one patient customer up here I guess I will just go outside and shovel snow and ice fish till my sexy 400's show up! I hope you get some personal stuff accomplished seeing as you only have 6 days till X mas
Merry Christmas from the great white north

Ride it out guys. Sounds like they are going through a tough time. John is a great guy and he will do the best he can to make it right. Emails are slow but be patient its gonna be worth it.

I sent a motor in to be repaired back at the end of November and am still waiting to hear any word on it. Now I have 2 BRXL's that quit and need them checked out. I have emailed the website 4 times with no response. Then posted to their facebook with no response. And also went through this site to email John last week and no response. I would think even short handed you could reply to emails while not at the office. My sons hand wound motor lasted less than an hour and now I sent it in to be repaired 1 1/2 months ago and can't get any response. I don't see how I can support a company like this when there is ZERO customer service.

I just don't see how you can expect to run a business and not even reply to your customers. After 1 1/2 months of no response, I don't see any excuse for that.

Unhappy Re: Holmes Hobbies Feedback...Unbelievable Support..Why to support Vendors

Hi I also am on this massive waiting list ordered a brxl and torquemaster expert around new years and still nothing . I also sent a email to them , nothing. And then I come to this page, lo and behold this problem is worse than expected. I would say I know but I don't know how good the stuff jrh sells all I know is I heard a bunch of positive stuff about product and service. So far no product to speak of , or service . I am a little put off by the lack of a phone also. I don't care what the excuse a business should have a phone. Please don't build yourself up to let all of the customers down. Its slightly comical that this thread is under the heading "unbelievable support". I await my order and if this stuff is any less than perfect Ive got many words to describe my experience to future customers of hh. Make this right please all I ask. Sometimes you only get one chance.....
