BTW i ordered some small parts like fuel tube and a pair of shocks (100mm) only ,both i assume are sold in poly bags and not in boxes (usually.)
How do u think i am supposed to get my parcel. Bubble wrapped in an envelope or covered with some card board sheet or some small box?

a small box, with big plastic air bags, most probably!!!

I have booked few items from HobbyKing..
My parcel tracking number is EQ301231508SG

Please someone check and tell me what does the codes say..

When did u book it?
It take about 3-4 days to get any tracking details after you get your tracking number.

I am able to track it here http://ipsweb.ptcmysore.gov.in/ipswebtracking/

But the thing is I am unable to understand what did it say at last..

please explaing me if possible the last two lines..

Looks like it was detained at customs  but later released and must be on way to  your post office.
Thats what i think, but i am not too expert at it so please excuse.

Enjoy, ur package is cleared by customs, will be at ur home very soon...
Watch for update of "Sent item to domestic location (inb)"
Wat ws in it anywayz?

few batteries and some propellers

Are there any issues with customs when ordering foam planes ( only airframe)

because we have more options of airframe fro hk

what do you guys order from hk, air frames or electronics.are there any specific stuff you dont get from local and prefer hk. just need your input as i am trying to build a robust set of power system where can i just swap it with different models.

No issue with customs in ordering foam planes, but issue is with packaging of the same by Hobby King. Packing quality is not so good.

any other good sellers to buy kits from outside india

HobbyKing is the cheap in terms of pricing that what I think .....
