[quote user="BRAKIE"][quote user="Falls Valley RR"] <p>Some of you proclaim speedy purchase and fast delivery of items are most important. I must be living in a slow part of the USA where I send in a order to the Hobby Shop and it might be a month or 6 before it arrives. But it usually arrives without errors and in good condition without additional hassle of paying shipping or tracking the product.</p><p>[/quote]</p><p> </p><p>It boils down to the on line shop(s) you use..The 3 that I use my order gets here in 4-5 days by UPS.There are some shops that takes 10 days just to process the order..Even Horizon and Atlas got my parts order to me in 5 days.Neither of the not so local hobby shops can do that.</p><p>As a side note I usually order on Sundays so my order can be process Monday.</p><p>[/quote]</p><p>Most of my orders are advanced reservation items. Sometimes it took two years of waiting like it did for a PCM P7 class pacific. I canceled that one and use the funds towards a set of E units from Proto availible now or nearly so.</p><p>Everyday items like paints etc those are availible at either store or very soon after asking for it.</p>
