MB posted this on Facebook this morning :

"I will be ordering from Horizon Hobby tomorrow morning, please email me if there is anything you need mbmodels@btconnect.com and put Horizon Order as the title so it isn't missed."

Hopefully they'll have stock again soon

Didn't horizon change the way they do business so not as many shops now stock them?

Don’t think so. They shut up shop over here and I think parts have to be ordered from Germany now.

Here's a conversation I had with someone and why they'd moved away from tlr

Quote:
They closed all the accounts and made all model shops re-apply to be able to buy from them, but instead of giving an account to everyone, they limited it to a handful so only a few select shops would be able to continue to buy horizon imported products at a price the modelshop can make profit on. The rest of the model shops where told to they could buy stuff but at retail price, leaving them no scope to make their own money from the sale. Hence Modelsport etc selling off their losi stuff cheap and not offering it for sale any longer.

Just greed, horizon then opened up their own online store, which if you live on the main EU landmass, is great, but for us in the UK or further afield its doubled shipping costs and time.

When Horizon Hobby still had a Office in the UK there was no stock there, and there hadn't been for over 3 years. All stock was held in the German warehouse which supplied ALL of Europe, Horizon Hobby closed not only the UK office but France and Italy as well, and everything was channelled through Germany.

Maybe give Darren at DMS a direct nudge. I'm waiting on a back order of tires and you'd have thought they were bread and butter
