The Staff
Our support staff have been racing models for years and we have more combined RC car experience than any other rc model seller on ebay.
Beware of sellers who do not specialise in rc models. With most models having someone to ask for advice and help is very useful.
UK Seller
Our stock is in the UK and prices include VAT and taxes.
Some
sellers claim to be in the UK but ship from overseas.
You will pay VAT, duty and customs clearence fees.
5 Years on Ebay
We have been selling on Ebay for 5 years and are not going anywhere. Over this time we have built up experience on how to make transactions run smoothly and quickly sort out any problems.
Look out for sellers who are looking to make some quick cash and then dissapear. A lot of sellers who claim to be companies in fact run their business from home and have no experience.
Product Support
As well as email support we are one of the few companies on Ebay that also offer telephone support.
Email support if you are lucky. Most of the Chinese sellers offer no support at all!

Lightning Strike - 1/10th Scale Nitro Radio Controlled
Rally Car
This
is the great looking and even better performing Nitrotek
rally car. Many of the specs are the same as the Acme
Condor Pro such as the automatic two speed gearbox,
aluminium shocks, large size 18 engine and aluminium
shock towers. There are however a few differences.
Available with Blue or Purple shell. Just let us know
which you prefer in the comments section when making
payment.
The
most obvious difference is the body shell. We have taken
a buggy chassis and modified it to fit a rally car shell.
Not only does this look amazing but it also means unlike
other nitro cars on the market this one is also pretty
good off road. Just like a real rally car this model
can go on tracks that would leave it's competition paralyzed.
The model comes fully built with radio control included.
We are even throwing in a nitro starter set worth £14.99
for free.
A
starter set is needed to use any nitro model so we are
including one for free!

Nitrotek models come with high quality Team
Infinity engines. Team Infinity engines are
made in Japan and feature a simplified carb
that makes them the easiest to start and most
reliable engines on the market. Nitro engines
usually have two or more tuning needles but
these only have a single adjustment that makes
them much easier to use without sacrificing
any power.
We
have had our Nitrotek models kitted out with
traditional stick type controllers instead of
the pistol type that come with a lot of models.
This is a personal choice of what you are more
comfortable with.

Please see the very top of this page for the postage cost on this item. The lower figure is for mainland UK delivery and the more expensive figure if for European delivery. If you are not in mainland UK (for example Northern Ireland or Scottish Highlands) please contact us before ordering to make sure there is no additional postage charges.
If you purchase two or more items we can combine the postage so you only pay one lot so whether you buy one or five items the postage will be the same.
Large items will be sent the same day Mon - Fri by NEP next working day courier if ordered before 2pm. After trying many different couriers we have found NEP are the best and most reliable.
Small items are still sent the same day if ordered before 2pm but by Royal Mail 1st class recorded post.
Please note Saturday & Sunday are not classed as working days so orders placed on Friday before 2pm will be delivered on Monday and orders placed over the weekend will be sent on Monday and delivered on Tuesday.
Delivery will usually be between 9am and 5.30pm (I'm afraid we can not give an actual time). We can offer a Saturday delivery service but it is an extra £15 on top of the standard postage. If you want to order with Saturday delivery please phone us as this can not be done by email.
If nobody is in they will try again the next day and if nobody is in again they will leave a card explaining how you can collect your parcel from your local depot.
We buy in massive quantities and for a lot of the items we sell we are the official exclusive UK importers of that item. We can therefore guarantee the lowest prices.

In order to qualify the price that we beat must be from a UK seller who is selling items from stock in the UK. Any additional postage charges or other charges must be taken into account. If the price is from an auction then the auction must be a multiple item buy it now auction and the seller must have a feedback of at least 20. If from a website then the site must be reputable and not one that someone has just put together in order to claim on our price promise!
In order to qualify you must phone us or email to us the auction number or web site address along with all your contact details before you purchase. Once we have checked the link is valid you will be able to purchase at £5 below the competitors price!
