Out of curiousity, who has ordered and is still waiting for an Infraction?

I wish I had a reliable shop that still cared. There is one which had one in stock but when I went to buy it went missing. It was sold but the person I talked to on the phone thought it was still at the store. They are due in latter this month. My other shop is in a place on the map that I just hate driving to. Not that far but you cant get there from here.I established a great relationship with my LHS. I try to buy as much as I can from them even it it means more money. That loyalty paid off when I became their first customer to get an Infraction. It sucks waiting and some people don't even have a local hobby shop anywhere near them. But if you do, and they aren't compete d!cks, it's worth becoming a valued customer ???
I couldn't be happier with www.danburyhobby.com. These guys love what they do. When I first walked in a year ago they didn't carry a single Arrma truck. Through my constant pestering they now carry the full 6s and 4s line. I'm still working on the 3s trucks ?I wish I had a reliable shop that still cared.

I have a reliable shop (since 1998) - the problem was the distributor messed up the order and because of that, we're still waiting.I established a great relationship with my LHS.

You at least have one available if you wanted it. I've already ordered and am still waiting.There’s one sitting in my LHS the boys opened up and nearly took off the plastic, till I said leave it. tempted as I may be I need more off-road and have hope that something big will be coming to take the Nero’s place. But dam it’s nice if I’m going to accidentally buy it, it will be in next 5 days haha.
Same here. They DID have a Senton 6s there with Hoons & a green Nova body. Looked pretty damn good. It might be easier buying it instead of rebuilding my Senton that I raided for a custom build. I would hold off on everything if I knew that Arrma was definitely pumping out a large scale. It might end up as the impulse buy of the year just like mt DBXL-e.You at least have one available if you wanted it. I've already ordered and am still waiting.
My closest LHS became a Traxxas Fanboy shop. Used to be an awesome shop 10 + years ago. Even had an indoor carpet track. Now that track is storage for Traxxas inventory. The owner showed me, when I asked about the old carpet track. I refuse to even buy paint there anymore. But I do stop in to break shoes and always ask for Arrma and other stuff I know they don't have. He seems afraid to carry Arrma and Axial stuff. His client base is now all Traxxas. So I guess that works for him. Hey its his store, who am I ?I established a great relationship with my LHS. I try to buy as much as I can from them even it it means more money.

You should come to my Traxxas Only LHS. He has every single part that TRX ever made. He is even trained in Traxxas High Pressure Marketing. He sounds like a TRX Mascot Parrot on caffeine. You would love this guy. You could trade TRX war stories.If mine carried Arrma or ever had the few parts I needed for my 2 Traxxas vehicles I would probably go there more. I let them ordered me parts once, they said they would call me when they came in, that was 3 years ago and I'm still waiting for my phone call................
He's been brainwashed and afraid to stock anything else but TRX. Paranoid of a TRX spy and having his inventory revoked. Losing his TRX banners and customer base and getting sued!My closest LHS became a Traxxas Fanboy shop. Used to be an awesome shop 10 + years ago. Even had an indoor carpet track.

But you are right, developing a good relationship with a LHS has an advantage or you succumb to the online drill...
I developed the patience to wait for the Limitless. I've become comfortable with that. My son is starting school in a few weeks . Need the cash for that right now. Supplies and clothes etc.
Sounds like you need to partner up with him and be the official store for the Forum!I couldn't be happier with www.danburyhobby.com. These guys love what they do. When I first walked in a year ago they didn't carry a single Arrma truck. Through my constant pestering they now carry the full 6s and 4s line. I'm still working on the 3s trucks ?
We drive through Danbury on the way to Maine for vacation. Next time I will stop in, looks like a great shop.I couldn't be happier with www.danburyhobby.com. These guys love what they do.
