What’s with Tower? I’m looking for parts for my kraton,,,,,95% of the parts are all on back order. It must be a real slow boat from somewhere,,,

jrwalte, good point. If this is the case, it would definitely have a huge impact on parts availability.if vendors are unwilling to give arrma a credit line to provide the parts and they have to pay up front cash instead because of what is going on, that would greatly impact arrma's ability to get parts to their customers. Not saying this is what is happening, but it could be.
Pfff, it doesn't friggin matter if they DO finally get parts in. The amount they get probably won't be enough to last more than 2 weeks tops before they are out of stock again and then have to wait another month.
A.) People are going to buy more than usual to stock up.
B.) Tons of people will be ordering because they have had to wait. For example, say they sell 100 of something a month on average, now that everyone has had to wait 2 or 3 months now that number goes up to 200-300 off the bat because the flow is screwed up which will cause things to go out of stock with a quickness.
I want some friggin backflip tires man and I know that if I don't know exactly when they hit the site then I miss them. It's aggravating. It's not Arrmas fault, it's the gready exec's of Hobbico.
Hobbico isn't just the distributor for Arrma, though. They own them.
It's right at the bottom of Arrma's webpage " 2018 ARRMA Durango Ltd. A subsidiary of Hobbico, Inc."
But I'm sure someone will buy Arrma. They are successful enough to have interested buyers. An auction is coming up Mar 26th, according to local paper where Hobbico is.

I just came from LHS and one of the guys said Hobbico was just bought out but he didn't know who bought them. Anyone heard this?
im starting to question buying the Kraton....this doesn't sound good one bit.
