I cannot take advantage plus even with exchange I'd save like 2$?

The prices are a rip if ya ask me. I try to stay away from any site that puts up a retail price for a clone at over $25.

*edit -Damn I should read closer

2 cars for $17 aint bad but I'm wondering what they ask for shipping.

I don't like it... but then again, I have very strong feelings about clones. Unless you're hitting them with a hammer.. then be my guest

it doesn't really tell you if the 2nd one free is the exactly like the first 1 you bought... like if I buy a red 27 mhz crapzilla is the 2nd one free a red 27 mhz crapzilla?

sounds like a fireworks promotion - buy one get one free at craaazyy dad's fireworks! lol

Accually if you go to the cash after picking one it gives you models and mhz to choose from. I got a RX-7 and a WRX I didn't buy them but I wanted to see how it worked.

You get 2 for 16.95 plus 17.00 shipping. So there making there money but is 35 for 2 worth it?

I did however find a hobby store here that carries MS and can order anything I want for them. Also they carry Bit Chr-G's as well but there special order. $40 for the MS and $60 for the Char-G

Holy Shit.... Those prices are high.. You can find those same cars at just about every drug store now..ie. Eckerds, Walgreens, CVS... Not to mention that most supermarkets have them as well.... IMO online buys are for specialty items...(hop-ups, and hard to find items...

coo. Well like I said after a little digging I found MS and Char-G's here.

Also a side note. Taylor ( my son ) won second place in a cutest baby compitition. He won $50.00 USD

Pretty cool.

Yeah those prices are high and the shipping is killer. You shouldnt pay more than say $10 for a bullet and if you gotta pay shipping, im sure it can be shipped for $5 or less to US. Even on ebay you can get panthers for $10 shipped. I was looking into getting some stuff to start selling here where i live , sortof a small hobby deal startin out at fleamarket and such. But im not sure i coul dresell them for much of a profit as alot of business would prolly have to be over the net till they became popular here. And $10 plus shipping is kinda high when you can get them locally at drugstores for $10. But hey , if you guys wanna buy some lemme know and ill get them

i may if you get in odd frequencies. ie 35 40 45 and 57.

well clones are $20 here. Thats how much my RX-7 was. They only have 3 Mhz though and 6 different cars in the series. There are different name brand clones but I like these ones best.

hogjowlz · Post by **hogjowlz** » Mon May 12, 2003 5:46 pm

20$ canuck is like 3bucks here right?

not for long dOOd ! if bush don;t find no weapon o mass destruction soon your economy is gonna go down the flusher. The canadian dollar is worth .68c USD. last week it was worth .56 USD. See what war does to an economy.

Actually the USdollar has been falling for atleast 3 years now.

Stoli · Post by **Stoli** » Mon May 12, 2003 6:58 pm

yes but its really made a difference in the candian market since the war. Our dollar has been steadily dropping for a while now and finally stopped around 56-59 cents USD but now that the war happened and bush isn't producing its the highest its been in years.
