Post by y2kgtp »

I have a bunch of stuff, and it seems to all want to show up tomorrow....she knows I do some RC stuff for eBay, but
still questions EVERY box that comes in the door. WTF is that?? What did you order now??? :lol: :lol:

I got 3 1/18th Losi Raminators, 2 1/18th Losi Mini Crawlers, and 5 of these flying things I bought from Amazon.com for 12.95$ each...and that is just what
I am aware of.....does not count other stuff I know is coming, and don't have a date for :lol:

I love it when a plan comes together, the Nascar from the states and the latest heli all arrived on a day she was at work, straight to trunk of car and away to store, well I did want to keep the heli in the house, but my attempt to disguise it as a fireplace clock failed

Nice! I got my mini on Saturday. Comp was Sunday. I tried to mod it before the comp and I did not make it. Stayed up til almost 3 am and had to leave at 6 am for the comp. I basically ruined myself before the comp started. But I have the mini under construction and far from stock.

Glad you got two, lol.

Why 3 Raminators though?

As for the packages. Last month I had 5 show up on the same day! I tried to get home for lunch but couldn't. Got home after work and the wife was like, "You got something in the mail. (pause) 5 somethings to be exact. What did you buy?". The gauntlet was thrown down. She was not happy.
35 years of RC and still broke!

I buy RTR's and tear them down for eBay sales....typically it does pretty good, and the wife gets 80% of the net sales.

It's a great cover and excuse to explain RC after RC coming into my office, isn't it? :mrgreen: :wink:
