Anybody here had problems with RCBros shipping? I bought some stuff on the 17th, got an email notification with tracking on the 19th saying it shipped, but still no parts and the tracking says it hasnt been picked up yet. 2 emails sent to try and find out whats up (one just sent today in all fairness) but no response as yet. color me frustrated.....

I've ordered a ton from there, always been top notch. No wait that was RC Boyz.nvm.

balance plug pulled out of one of my 5200 mah hard packs.....suck.

 

[sickpuppy1]

Yeah, I've heard nothing but good about them also, thats why I'm bugged about it.

I've got a 5200 pack that has one wire of the balance plug come out also. Havent got around to opening the hardcase to try and fix it yet.

I know Sam has ordered from them a few times and shipping has been an issue once or twice. They dont keep everything on the shelf, they have some stuff drop shipped straight from the manufacturers which throws a wrench in things.

I ordered the front four link mount and some servo clamps, both of which showed to be in stock.And like I said, they actually gave me a tracking number. I dunno, maybe they thought they had it and didnt. Would have been nice to get notified about it. And to not answer the email kinda blows.. I'll let ya know what happens.

I've ordered from rcbros a few times & never had any troubles.

I hate waiting for deliveries too...be patient, idk maybe send him a PM???

it could also be USPS if that's how they shipped. i received a package today and i still had tracking pulled up on my phone and when i went to close it, all it said was they had been electronically notified to expect it for shipping, when i had it sitting on my table!

i have ordered several things from them and i have always received the items , but it was a little slow .

yeah i think both of my orders were drop shipped from manufacturer , so slow shipping .

i have had that happen to me also , it still showed as dropped off at post office for shipping yet i received it that day .

 

[sickpuppy1]

Yeah, we'll see. Its been 12 days , and they said 3-4 days, but I'm sure it will show, just not sure when,lol

 

[ohh EPiC FAiL]

do they have a phone number on their website that you could call?

Part of the problem with the USPS is they are slow to update and it usually doesnt happen until some time overnight. I sent a package recently and it showed up 10 days late. I was fearing that it was lost forever at that point. On my last trip to the Post Office the postal worker explained that Deliver Confirmation isnt really a tracking number. Its just a confirmation that the package eventually arrived at its designated location.

On a side note their promised arrival date isnt a guarantee. If they say your Priority Mail shipment will arrive in 2 to 3 days, its more of a hope than a promise.

I seem to remember Sam telling me they dont return emails.

 

[ohh EPiC FAiL]

yeah that's the one reason i like UPS, they seem to take a day or two longer to get stuff to you than USPS, but you always know exactly where it is and when it'll be there

yeah they never did if i remember right , i ended up calling the manufacturer and they told me that they hadn't received the order yet , but when they got it it shipped the same day and i received it the next day .

does anyone have any mini t springs they'd sell? i've got some traxxas big bores coming and wanna set them up with mini t springs

 

[sickpuppy1]

what colors are you looking for?

 

[ohh EPiC FAiL]

no clue. whatever all the guys are running! i haven't been able to find much info on what people are running

I'm pretty sure but not positive you'll need the rear springs for the mini T, the fronts are shorter than the rear

They come in packs of three with soft,med,firm rates.
I've got a package or 2 of the rears and just used the softs for my mrc's...also have 1 pack of the fronts.
I could possibly help you out with the springs.

I run Medium in the front and firm in the rear. So what Chris has will be perfect. Chris, I'll take the other pack from you. I need them for a new Sportsman rig that I am trying to get together next week.
