Monstrous Posted June 8, 2006 Share Posted June 8, 2006 his website has never been topnotch best to phone them when ordering for anyone thinking of buying from there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glypo Posted June 8, 2006 Share Posted June 8, 2006 Kevs new site is a lot better then the old though. It's a shame as I missed out on setting him up with a real top notch site. Glad you got an email back. As others have said Kev is a top bloke and should sort you out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alex199020 Posted June 28, 2006 Share Posted June 28, 2006 How much is shipping? (items about £55) And is it best to order over phone then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antnee Posted June 28, 2006 Author Share Posted June 28, 2006 i dont know but if you click on the thing you want and just keep going through the checkout procedure you will soon find out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stumungous Posted June 28, 2006 Share Posted June 28, 2006 Kevs new site is a lot better then the old though. You think so? I find it harder to find bits on there, on the old site it was bang in a part number and there you go, now it's bang in a part number and nothing, or bang in a part number and get 100's of other bits for different makes of cars...

dazzi220 Posted June 28, 2006 Share Posted June 28, 2006 is sgmodels anygood? it looks decent, whats the service like Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smallman28 Posted June 28, 2006 Share Posted June 28, 2006 is sgmodels anygood? it looks decent, whats the service like I have never had any probs with SG or Rapid-Racing. The guy from SG even phoned me up once on a Saturday evening to explain there would be a delay getting my stuff as they were out of stock of one part and with it being a bank holiday on the Monday it would be a little longer. I still got the stuff before the end of the week though. There was a mix-up with my order the one time and it was sorted very quickly with a phone call,sent out the correct part and I got it the next day.

fastboy Posted June 30, 2006 Share Posted June 30, 2006 yes,rather annoyed that i thought i was going to get my bits before the weekend..now i have to go searching again for parts. what i liked about krb was he accepted paypal and that he had all the bits i needed..or so i thought. dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the end I just didn't go through with it and stuck to my regular places to get stuff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smallman28 Posted June 30, 2006 Share Posted June 30, 2006 yeh but they don't stock alot of FG stuff i wish jespares would to thats a good site If MS has the FG stuff I want in stock I order it from there as I get a 10% discount through Tamiyaclub,if they don't I get elsewhere. They range a fair bit of FG stuff seeing as they dont specialise in largescale,it's just they dont ever seem to have half of it in stock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rover Man Posted June 30, 2006 Share Posted June 30, 2006 Well Ive been using SB Racing lately. I just cant fault Si's service. If he hasn't got the part in stock he'll get it by the next working day and you'll get it the next day. He can order any FG spare you mite need. His prices are very good plus i get an extra 10% discount for being a Warstone raceway member If you need to contact Si he runs the Warstone raceway forum in my sig. DAVE.

In the end I just didn't go through with it and stuck to my regular places to get stuff was it £2 if so it did it to me just copt and paste the email receipt into paypal and request £2.09 back (the 9p is to cover paypal charges) ad he'll do it-it happened to me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
