bend over hear comes the shipping charge

So i had to pull the pass side head back off because the HG didnt seal right on my reubild.

well the gasket for my downey header wasnt sealing up so i decided to order a new one.

no big deal $15 for the gaskets.

cept i need them asap. SO for something you could litterly stick in an envolpe and send me for 70 cent in postage.....

COSTS ME $20 SECOND DAY

ask them "you cant send USPS?" mmmmmm no he says

i dought ill be buing any more downey crap, i dont need to be raped on shipping again thanks.

nice, i like having the electric rather than the nitro b/c of maintinance and upkeep. It would be nice if i could afford and be able to take care of a nitro, but when im earning 275 a week i just dont have enough money (plus i have to take care of the 4Runner!). Thats pretty cool tho.

Just thought i'd chime in. Glad to see some other folks with RC's. I have an Ofna GTP w/ an RB Concepts C-5 11-port. It's setup with a Late Model Dirt car body to race on dirt ovals. My offroad one is a T.A. RC10GT w/ an O.S. CV-R .12, so I can stay in the ROAR .12 class at my local track. Nitro's are a lot of upkeep but man when you've got em' right there a ton of fun!

Their customer service is sorely lacking!! I won't buy from them again if I can possibly avoid it.
