Amazon and eBay

[N.Mango]

I buy a lot of things on Amazon and eBay but why when it's rc parts it takes forever?!?!

 

[Doom!]

Only when you NEED them, order something you don't urgently need, and it will arrive in a jiffy!

 

[N.Mango]

EXACTLY! WTF?!?!

I'm sure that cargo crap thats going on plays a part but when you know youre tracking your part thats already in the store/warehouse it takes forever!
I order a dish soap dispenser for my fiancé that she wanted and its like they put it in a twin turbo Lambo and drove it to my mailbox!

I'm used to waiting a long time for R/C parts since I live in a fairly remote part of a large (by area) country and most parts have to come either from across the border or a warehouse on the other side of the country. If Amazon stuff shows up in a week I'm happy, eBay stuff from the US it's more like 2 to 3 weeks. I suppose many others have been spoiled by next day or same day delivery, but I don't get that even if a relative mails me something from the next town over.

Im in the same situation. We have no next day or same day delivery. And to get Lipo's....I have to find the right people on eBay cause Amazon will not deliver lipo's to me.

Lipo's aren't legal to be on an airplane hence my problem with lipo's.

Not sure what you mean . Lipo came from New Jersey to So Cal . I’d be impressed if they thought I was special and said “ hey, let’s fly it to this guy “.
