No Slack 454 Posted April 22, 2020 I remember the film was broadcasted in The Netherlands at some time and I was so impressed with the RC Spitfires. And after watching the clip on YT just now I still am. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FedEx doesn't mess around. The Top Force box didn't have the clear seal on it. I got a bit nervous until I opened it to see that RCMart must have done that to stuff more bubble padding inside the loose areas of the box. That was pretty nice! This was my first order from them so I'm not sure if they always do this. I also didn't specify FedEx when I placed the order. Maybe RCMart is upgrading people to FedEx to get these packages out faster? This is normal, Tamiya doesn’t seal their kits in shrink wrap, I believe it’s a TamiyaUSA thing only 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They said royal mail have told them they are currently 10 days behind on all orders, which pretty much is what I'm experiencing. For the record, I've found DPD to be the most reliable service during this pandemic. That's a bit weird I bought something which was dispatched and delivered by royal mail on Monday and it arrived today 2nd class!

ChrisRx718 4470 Posted April 23, 2020 Customs bill I braved the outside world as the website listed the local sorting office as being open. Arrived to printed off signs plastered all over the doors that the revised hours would be 7am til 9am. So there's going to be a huge crowd outside tomorrow I guess, social distancing at its' finest! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
