SJ - I prefer to leave the mixing to the profesionals... cause as you said it is potentially dangerous stuff!

No sorry, just parts really. Reason being, is that if you import anything worth over $400NZD (theres a label on the box with the senders declared value), it will be pulled by customs and they make you pay tax, which varies for different items. I think toys were 7%, either that or $14. And you have to pay that through a customs broker, whose fee will be $40-$50 per transaction. Theres 2 ways around it, either break the order down into several cartons (which wont always work), or, get the sender to under-declare the value, although most will decline.

Keep that in mind when pricing up RC overseas! The savage is a BIG truck!

....Anyways, thats my life story :stare: ......Sorry!

477152 2007-10-14 07:02:00 How are the tracks out there these days On road has not changed, but there was some work done to the off road so it is a little more technical, has rythm section, table top and double jump section.
