hes stopped dealing ofna for now,i called him recently,and i only need a 1/8 which for this price range is unviable in trxx,or infact any brand i suppose.

ohoki .. then u can get it from tower ... for a buggy of cost 299 and den add a small anything of few dollars value . make it cross 300 and if u have registered in tower already u should be getting the discount codes in your email .. use the code and ul get 75$discount for 300$ value excluding shipping .. ul save some money that way ..

EMS is good, but nobody will clear it for us from customs in case parcel gets detained. Couriers, on the other hand, do the customs clearing on our behalf. But the only courier they offer is UPS, which is awesome, but very expensive.

Now, there is a courier called Aramex who offer a service called ShopnShip.
I have used it once and found it pretty good. It took them 7 days to deliver from US to India.

Charges are slightly higher than EMS. $10 for 500g, $8 for every 500g thereafter + 10.3 service tax

try contacting joy rising hobby from chennai .. he deals in hongnor/jammin brand .. he should have a 8th scale buggy called x1x for about 22-25 or maybe more

This is what we have been using for all the shopping from the US (to Qatar), not just RC stuff.  Works great with Amazon, or even getting Apple products.

Sorry to bump this thread, but... I've also placed an order with TowerHobbies (w/out tracking) on 6th March. I'm expecting the parcel by April first week. Can you all share your experience with Tower (cheapest shipping option)? Please do reply. :p
