I to have the same problem. Overpriced LHS with limited stock. I have to drive an hour to 2 hours just to race or buy parts. I have had good luck with the net. As far as shipping you have to buy more than one item to get the benefit of the shipping cost. Plus I haven't paid tax yet. I just made a 140 usd order from rc mart and didn't pay tax. I live in CA too. After shipping and other charge I paid only a couple dollars extra per item. Here's an example. I bought a Megatech diff. for my wifes clk, cost-39.99 w/o tax. I bought a GPM from rc-mart and paid 22.00 with 18.99 w/o shipping. I paid a total of 35 usd in extra charges tacked on to my 106 bucks in parts. Was it worth it???? Oh yeah very, no traffic, no gas, no high prices, no idiot salesman and I get what I want, not what they have. Patience is a virtue when ordering online. You didn't have it before will it bother you to wait a couple more weeks. Most of all.........I JUST WANNA RACE!!!!!!!!!!!No tracks for miles. I told my wife when I retire from the Navy I am opening a mini-z hobby shop with a huge track. Only 12 more years to go LOL.
