ATees.com (AsiaTees) - Anyone used them recently?

[Blista 1099]

They've got a Black Friday sale on and it looks like there's some good deals.  I'm surprised to see a CC02 at a price I'd consider buying one.

Has anyone bought a kit from them during the year?  Wondering how reliable they are, do they actually have in stock the items they say they do, and if the shipping is as slow as everywhere else seems to have been.  I haven't bought anything from them in a few years and even then all I bought was a few small items.

Here was my experience back in June:

I got my Knight Hauler, Tx, Masking tape etc from there just after the ban was lifted to Australia (about September) by normal Air Mail as it was a third of the price of FedEx.

It did take ages to come probably getting on for 4-6 weeks? But I wasn't in a hurry anyway. They sent me a photo of everything being packed which is a nice touch. It was all packed into 2 boxes, the Truck came first, I then got a bit concerned that the Tx wasn't with it but did arrive a week later. All was without damage. I would use them again communications have been very good with them. The Tracking didn't seem to work that well until it was in the hands of Australia Post then I could see where it was and got delivered when they said it would. So apart from a long delivery period which was to be expected, all was fine in the end.

Thanks, that's good to know.  I was a bit concerned that a lot of their shipping is now stated with impossible dates even when entering the delivery details.  I don't think FedEx are getting it from them to me in 1-2 days no matter how often they say it.

Thanks, I'm not too worried about how long it takes since it's that time of year for delays but if a Knight Hauler arrived safely that bodes well for a smaller kit.

Now I can just try to talk myself out spending money.

well, I shouldn't have clicked on this thread  I thought I'd check out the specials, saw there was going to be some good deals and then remembered I wanted the MF-01X Beetle. No luck, they are out of stock, then after some searching I went to eBay and found one that wasn't way overpriced and before I could help myself, (and a quick mental justification, whose exact details are now becoming foggier) I now have one on order. It wasn't my fault, if this thread didn't exist, I wouldn't have bought it. My next problem is how I phrase that to Mrs Yogi-Bear
