bigoggy Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 I ordered 2 things from Modelsport?, a nitro car,and fuel for it, both ordered at the same time. Did they post them together? NO, not only did they not post them together, but they came by different couriers. WHY? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tug Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 Dunno, probably something to do with who's prepared to carry fuel and pricing structures. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mini-z-awd Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 like the admiral said some company`s wont take nitro as its volatile and could go boom if handle wrongly. its the same with lipo battery`s the royal mail wont take them unless there attatched to a esc or mobile phone or the likes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NO, not only did they not post them together, but they came by different couriers. WHY? I'm pretty sure nitro fuel can't be posted by normal post or courier they have to send it by a special courier,probably because of safety and regulations .

Richard.S Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 Why are you bothered? As long as you receive the goods there's nothing to worry about.. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigoggy Posted September 26, 2013 Author Share Posted September 26, 2013 OK, makes more sense now. Why are you bothered? As long as you receive the goods there's nothing to worry about.. Not bothered, just wondered, would you not find it unusual? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nitroholic Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 Fuel has to go my a different carrier. MS use UK-Mail for that if I remember right. Presuambly, if the total cost of sending the car and fuel by the Courier was too much, they would split it and use a cheaper carrier for the car. The order would have been sufficiently high in value for you to get free postage anyway, so they will be carrying the cost of postage. They will use whatever services/carriers fit the bill to minimise cost whilst not breaking the conditions of carriage. Most carriers will not carry nitro fuel....you need to have specific certification for it as it is classified as 'dangerous goods'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
