Need an on-line hobby store - help.

[TimD]

Hi everybody,

I am wanting to purchase a Steve Muck 67 pipe and need to know a good supplier in the USA who sells them over the internet. These pipes appear to be unavailable over here in Australia and I want to try one.

Can anyone give me a reccomendation?

Alternatively if someone has a decent 2nd hand one they want to sell I'm interested too.

Thanks in advance,

Tim.

Thanks PJ,

Are they good to deal with? Bit hard to chase someone from the other side of the world if it goes wrong

Don't know...I've never dealt with them. But I'll tell you what...if they do you wrong, I'll chase them from here for you! ;D

Hey Tim, great people to deal with, Ive known them for a few years now, they are also in our club. I live in the same neighborhood as they do, so if they jerk you around I will toilet paper there house and stab the tires on his new Vette. But seriously they are great people to deal with been in the business for over 30 years in the same place. Tell em Gabe sent you (thats me) You'd be hard pressed to find a hobbyshop with more knowledge about boats and other R/C stuff. ~ James

[Propjockey]

[MarkScott]

Dorky names? ;D Knew someone with a given name of Bimbo, yea, that's right.. BIMBO.. That's what inbreading does for those in Kentucky ;D Then again, one of my cousin (in Michigan) named a son Scotty Scott Scott... :

 

[waterbug]

Ron thats why I laugh so hard when I see " Plug Sale" lowest prices and those fools on ebay thinking they are " Getting a Deal" "Buy Know"

O' Randy use to manufacturer a top of the line fuel that most of you northern guys have used at one time or another . He's from Ohio , and has worked in the industry most of his life.

No fun if every one runs the same motors and pipes, personally the K67 is a hell of a lot better motor than the MAC and CMB,

 

[TimD]

It's now a week since I sent Randy's an email and still no reply???

I use a mail server and didn't get a rejection or undeliverable message so I have to assume they got it :-

Anyone else out ther I can try?

Tim.

 

[topfuel443]

Hey Tim, ??? I'll be there all day tomorrow, we have a work day for the club on a new dock we got for our pond. I will see whats up with the email thing, probably just havent checked it, they usually get all of there orders over the phone. Ill get a response for you tommorrow, one way or the other. ~ James

P.S. Ill make sure they still got the Steve Muck pipe while Im there.

 

[topfuel443]

Tim, Just got off the phone with Randy, hasnt checked the email from the site yet, he still has the muck pipe if you want it, but he said he doesnt ship overseas anymore (got stiffed twice with bad credit cards, for big purchases). Since ive "talked him up" so much, I would like to help you out if you want the goods. Ill get the pipe and send it to you for whatever the website has for the price of the pipe plus shipping cost to you via USPS. let me know what you want to do, you could pay me via paypal, and ill get it to him. ~ James "just trying to help" Clegg

 

[TimD]

James,

Thanks for all your help!

I'll send you an email today.

Tim.

 

[topfuel443]

Tim, I looked at the pipe on satuday, when we were there, so he still has it. Do you have a pic of the one you want? this basically looks like a Macs pipe with a very large expansion area. I wont get the email till I get to work on monday.
