National hobbies axial parts

[rch_carter]

i was talking with national hobbies and he said give him a list of things he would like him to carry and he will start caryyin more axial parts so i told him id post a post up here to see what you guys want carryed more of

They need to start carrying Exo suspension and steering parts :lol:
My suggestions would be:
Drive Shafts, Trans output gears (steel), Bevel gears, screw kits, lockers, tires /foams, steering upgrades. I know they already have some of that stuff in there, but it would be nice if they carried alternative brands also like, MIP, STRC, Pit Bull, Hot Racing etc. I think it would be wise to have replacement parts and hop-ups. I've been in there a few times and they are pretty good to deal with. One of the guys liked the F350 and after I bought my servo they hooked up their castle link and changed the settings on my BEC for me, and also hooked it up to my ESC and adjusted that also.

I would tell them to check out RPP's website for ideas on what to carry for the SCX10 and Wraith and also for ideas on competitive pricing.

I would start frequenting that shop if they carried axial parts. I dont mind ordering online but i would much rather support a lhs.

They will price match online hobby sites (probably not ebay).

They already have some Axial stuff, more than the other hobby shops I've been to. They don't (didn't) have anyone there that knows about crawling like some shops do though.

That is the difference between stocking items that break frequently or are good upgrades, and stocking items that you thought looked good in a catalog.

Just like Kevin said, they price match online sites which is awesome. I used to go in there about 2-3 times per week before going to night shift and they carry way more stuff for axial than any other hobby shop in the valley and ive been to almost all the hobby shops in the valley due to my job. I bought all my robinson gears for the wraith there and they do carry quite a few aluminum parts as well like chubs and knuckles for the wraith and xr. Not sure what they have for the exo though. I've thought about seeing if the owner Tom would let PARC put a flyer in the shop letting everyone know about us. Our club needs more publicity.

Nick tom will let you put flyers up he doesnt mind.i have been going there for awhile now Esaw tries to keep a good stock of axial parts for us. They are really good about price matching and they do not price match to ebay but any other place online they will as long as its in stock at said store online.

I tried at viper but the owner didn't think it would turn a profit and besides he laid me off cuz business is slow so now national has parts but not a experienced crawler dude roy told me that hobbytown in scottsdale is starting to stock axial and julian works there and has knowledge too man you guys should see his unimog/scx-10

 

[Big Daddy]

$#it Joe, I didn't know you weren't at Viper anymore.

Haven't seen Julian around since last winter. His mog is sweet, it was nice before the redux.

ive been talking to them too about axial parts. they are ordering some of the parts i need and they are ordering extras for the store too.

i kno they need to carry parts for the exo and more of the common parts (to include wraith bumper supports).
