I have been made one, with these notings ( dunno what it means)

EliteClub member
You are currently an EliteClub member, which means you have either placed a substantial number of orders or contributed greatly to the R/C Community.
As an EliteClub member you are also offered certain privileges which will be communicated to you via email or in your account section (here) from time to time.
EliteClub members can also use the 'Bug-The-Boss' feature. Allowing you to send a short message directly to HobbyKings director informing him of an issue or suggestion.

I'm one since about 6 months ago.  It means they out your orders ahead of the "coach" class so it goes out faster.  Also, you get "bump the boss" feature (direct email to a Director) in case your order gets screwed up or you can't resolve a complaint through the chat line.  I've used it and it works!

So it means you fly "first class" and in theory receive better customer service and supposedly exclusive online offers.

Would anyone venture to guess about how much it cost in total orders to become Platinum Elite?

This came in today and when you click on it you see photos:

That also means you get to call the boss directly and ask him to setup shop in india via some partners. Im sure there are many willing entrepreneurs amongst us.

And +1 to what sanjay sir said...

I'm just a measly Gold level member, but I've been in touch with Mr. Anthony Hands (exchanged direct emails) infrequently for the last two years. What's the big deal?

No there aint any big deal. Pardon me but that remark was in line with the earlier humor Rai sir put forth. Understanding the association between the two remarks probably wasnt a big deal either ;). Or was it

Guess I see what you wrote between the lines young friend ;). Pardon me again, but I almost visualized you shaking hands with Mr. Anthony Hands exchanging some message envelopes (supposedly printed emails...lol). Sorry my line of work demands much visualization or probably it's just Mr. Hand's last name.

PS: How's the mermaid and the crash coming up?
