Default CAT SX from new shop in UK

Just a question for you guys in the UK, anybody know anything about this shop-- http://www.stormrc.com/schumacher-ca...-kit-240-p.asp

Cheap price, but it's been almost two weeks, and I don't have a car yet. They said they sent it Royal Mail intl, and that it should be delivered this week, but don't have a tracking number for me. Just wondering if anybody knows anything about them. Luckily, it was a paypal transaction.

Never heard of them before, but that is cheap. Might be worth asking this in the NE section of this forum as that is where the shop is located. Also an email to Schumacher to see if they have heard of the shop (as they would have sent them the kit they have sold to you if they are genuine)

I hope you get the kit sorted. If you don't, try www.jespares.com

Hopefully they are genuine, a few good signs, such as stuff about finding local clubs, having a full postal address on their website, phone number etc, so fingers crossed for you!

The address brings up a Residential street by the looks of things so they may be trading from home ?? on website is says Office 14 ??

Like you say if its paypal you should be protected for no delivery especially if they cant provide tracking / proof of postage.

Sorry to be negative but too many bad people about at the moment

Hope all turns out ok

J_woody beat me to it lmao

i came across this site a few days ago and was surprised by the price of the S1's @ £214.99
there address looks to be a residential property and not commercial, maybe they're taking orders before they've got the stock, and are waiting on deliveries themselves, whatevers happened slow/non delivery is a pain in the arse, at least you should be protected by paypal

Just a quick point.. as woody says they maybe taking orders before submitting there order to Schumacher..

Schumacher are currently out of stock on the Standard Lipo and the S1 Lipo Kits so that could be the hold up.

Fingers crossed for ya.

Thanks for the help, everyone! Well, they did say delivery this week, so I shall wait, see, and report back. If it does, it will have only been 2 weeks, which wouldn't be bad shipping to the US, that's for sure. Crosses fingers...

20 years removed from this sport, and I'm chomping at the bit getting up and running, and shaking the rust off my driving. Have the SP LFP 2.0, SP 6.5 motor, Core LiPO, and Futaba gear already waiting to go in!
