From the sound of it (see this thread), shipping is going to be a reasonably major expense for the 914 R/C body group buy.
Is anyone interested in getting a SF Bay Area deal going on this? It could cut down on the shipping quite a bit. (Even more, if the car bodies stack or "nest" nicely!) One person would buy N of them from Ed, and the locals would stop in and get them in person... This would also cut down on the "hassle factor" for Ed, so it could be a win/win. I could be the guy "in the barrel", but it would probably be better if someone who actually had a Pay Pal account were to bo the guy. And, of course, this is all at the sufferance of Ed, who is being nice enough to do the whole distributorship thing for us. --DD |

Latest Update
THe distributor told me the bodies are in line to be made. I guess the bodies were out of stock, so he had to order 500 to get the order through. We should have confirmation on the delivery this week coming up. Sorry for the delay, but we will have the freshest R/C shells in the country! I hope they come soon, as I have spent $500+ waiting for them to come. Why did I ever get into this!!! I started with nothing, now I have 3 race cars and 3 4x4 trucks. I bought a 4x4 USA-1 to tow it, a trailer to put the 914 on, a 4wd chassis for the 914 body, plus racing motors, controls, tires, etc. Then I got hooked up with the 'Magnificent Dave', and got a custom truck body for the 4x4, and he is painting the trailer to match it. Boy I think I have a little obsession problem. See the truck pic below, it's beautiful... |
