Your selection is the best. The only thing is maybe a better tire selection for the slash and maybe offer the parts for the 1/8 scale wheel conversion. I also like the idea of bulk packs of hardware. Maybe 25ea per pack in 3mm in the more common sizes.

I feel I got dinged on the shipping charge for my last order, but you had the best price on the items I ordered.
It's a give and take relationship on the shipping. If you only order a couple bearings...then it may seem like you got "dinged" on the shipping....but when you order a bunch of stuff that he has to send in a much larger box like say a body or even a whole RTR kit....you make out on the shipping.

I think you just need to buy more stuff...more often

There are times that I had just placed an order with Corey, and either I have just received it...or it's bound to show up at my door within a day....and I find myself browsing his site again and find more things I need. I almost feel bad that I just ordered something...and now he's got to throw another box together for me.

RPP is my first stop when I need anything unless I already know he doesn't carry it. RPP is my goto online hobby shop. If he doesn't have what I am looking for (which is not often), thats when I will start looking on other sites. I have even waited for him to carry the items before I buy them....even though the items may have been in stock already somewhere else. (like on new releases).

I couldn't have said it better.Corey is my main man when it comes to buying.Sometimes it may seem like the flat rate shipping is a pain but,it gives me more incentive to buy more things.
Thanks Corey for the excellent service I've always got from you.

As for me, Corey does an awesome job with customer service. He might get irritated with all my emails(i doubt it) but he resondes to them and with great results. I have been doing special orders with him lately and wonder if he is losing out with shipping to me. Keep up the awesome service bro

On another note Corey, I see that you got some styrene added to the site I will be adding that to my current order

that's the ones! I'll be buying them on Monday. One more item came to mind that I don't see you carrying- the Axial threaded posts. RCPcrawlers carries them in 5mm length increments, in every color. I realize it's a huge amount of stuff to carry in your inventory, but maybe you could carry each size in one color?

Just like everyone else says, it's your service that keeps me coming back to you. There's been very few items that I've had to buy elsewhere, you usually have it in your inventory and the box always arrives in 3 days after I place the order.

see the steamed crab in my avitar? That's what the Old Bay Seasoning was originally intended for

I reallize for those who just need a small item 8.99 is a high cost for them to swallow, but It still gets sent priority mail and processed extemely fast.

One thing I surprised I never get commended on is in the event when we do unfortuanlky have a stock problem and have to back order an item, we send the back order item out seperate at no additional shipping cost to the buyer. I am not aware of any other place that does this.

Towerhobbies doesn't charge for shipping on back orders.

The only thing I can see that would be cool is if you carried the ball bearing kits for the CC-01 chassis. This would rock considering you are selling the Jeep Wrangler now.

The bearing sizes are:
(2) 10x15x4mm
(11) 5x11x4mm
(3) 5x8x2.5mm
(2) 6x12x4mm

I dont think you carry these. I think you have everything else though.

Any chance of getting the Aoshima swampers again?

I think the Micro market is getting ready to kick in. Be ready.

It would be nice to see some Pro-line or other brand Tools or Hitec servo gear sets.

Well no doubt you have the best selection available and your service is second to none, but I haven't seen anything on your site about the AX30507, bender 4 link plate made by Axial. Any plans on carrying these? Otherwise I think I have one of everything you carry!

Hey Corey...are you expecting another shipment of Tundra fender flares soon?

Are the flares solid....or are they hollow on the backside?

Do ya just glue them on?

Just realized two things that I was shopping for that you don't carry.

Castle 4mm bullets & solder (the really thin silver solder)
