Recently while searching around on Flipkart I came across the toys section and to my surprise saw a buggy..... a proper hobby grade r/c buggy.So I kept searching and saw some more things like- Parkzone pnp models, helis,Buggys and all Hobby Grade!
The best option is COD which satisfies a customer a lot and a very quick delivery period!

This a good competition for the current sellers and maybe a very good option for the buyers who look for a big named company..... but the only problem is high cost, sometimes even that does not matter if you get a quality item!

The line between genuine RC products and these toy kind of products is a bit blurred .
These kind of products have been around most toy stores for  a couple of years  as I know it .
Such stuff is available at most Toy stores like recently I visited Hamley's and express avenue  and Odessey and found these kind of toys all over the place from Burma Bazar or Chandni Chowk to Malls so nothing new really .


Sai

we are not talking about toys sir.....
parkzone planes and team associated parts(even traxxas spares) cannot be seen as toy grade

Everything looks fine except their limited specifications.

As I said the line is a bit blurred I don't know if I would really term Park zone as true RC it is like any nine eagles RTF .
I agree it is from a RC Hobby company but is it true genuine RC products or is it on the border line between toys and RC Products ?
Interpretations could be different .
I will have my point of view and others could differ on that but one thing for sure it will always be debatable

Sai

Price of the SC10 4x4...

@hyd_quads: yeah that is a -ve point too but it being a universal product you can check the horizonhobby website

@rcforall: I agree with you sir.Everything is debatable.... even what food we eat to how we work...

@iamahuman: even i am wondering how they managed it to sell so cheap

Oh well, I don't know much about planes.

Flipkart. Had a lot of respect for this company. My family ordered many books which arrived COD and all was well, till a fortnight ago. Daughter ordered a book for Rs.245/-. Book reached, I told the delivery person that I had no change and gave him a Rs.500/- note. He put note inside his bag and requested me for Rs.5/- in change so that he could return Rs.260/- to me. I went inside the house to look for a 5 coin. Got it and gave it to him. He gave me the book and Rs.260/- and then asked for the Rs.500/- note! I told him that I had already given it to him and he denied it completely, "Sir you've just given me Rs.5/- so far." I was forced to give him another 500 note to avoid an ugly situation.

Have called up their Customer Service numbers and lodged 3 complaints. Each time their response has been, "We will get back to you within 24 hours." No one's got back. I have given up. Beware guys.

I've ordered quite a few items too - books , movies etc....

Each time they've sent thru EMS - is Guwahati different ?

They have their own office and own delivery agents, in Flipkart livery, in Guwahati.

Thats the Desi business house style of treating Customers as 'Dog' (instead fof God). Flipkart's USP of prices have significantly tumbled in the recent past. I doubt that any single Desi E-Comm site would become Amazon/BestBuy of India due to complete lack of Business Ethics beyond their 'Incubation' period. Even I was troubled with Myntra.com  only on my second order.

+1 Sai.
Toys at serious Hobby item price. Just see the Parkzone RTF prices!!! Ridiculous !
I totally agree with Sai that such More-Toys-Than-Serious-RC  items are being sold for over 6 years now in toy stores, and would come under toys only. A serious flyer would make them as their Kid's first model at its best.

The Associated is just a Chassis and some sway bars, Rest of the cars apart from Maisto and Nikko are all knockoffs.

Also saw some RPM arms.

now this is some mean bush....!!

http://www.flipkart.com/align-t-rex/p/itmdabjkye6bjzk4?pid=VPADA9JFWMF49HUF

either got the price wrong or some specs...!!

Align T Rex for Rs.1462/-

"Dimensions
Width    4.3688 cm   
Height    2.9972 cm   
Depth    5.5372 cm   


Please note: All products sold on Flipkart are brand new and 100% genuine"

look  at the category they put it under....!

Home > Toys > Vehicle & Action Toys > Vehicle & Pull Along > Align T-REX


if its a  real  Trex..... i think we should not miss the deal...... order and if not  what we expected  return it back....

@VC lol.. is that true .. u just saw the link.. they say its imported edition. lol.. and then add  10000 rs towards DUTY FEE .. lol

i  have placed an order for  the above heli..... ( Y do  i take such unwanted risks ).

for simple reasons:
1> if the price  is the same and the heli delivered  is  the one in the pic...... boom... i have a  jackpot

2>  if they ask for additional  amount i dont pay and send it back to the seller ( i just love COD  )

3> if the dimensions shown  on the site  are  correct then i have a ultra micro  heli..... boom... another jackpot 

4> if there is slightest difference(in dimensions or the pic)  and i am not happy  i can  always say its not as mentioned on the site and get a refund.....

anyone else willing to  take the risk....!

I am in tooo!
i also just ordered the product you did...
lets see what turns up at our doorstep

it says vehicle pull along could it be a sticker ?

I ordered one too .. i expect to see a plastic 450v2 just like a hk450
Edit ;Oh yeah ,  just checked dimension
