"International (Non USA) Buyers beware! This site will take your money and then wait 4 days before requesting copies of your CC and Drivers License, before they will send your Item! If they are going to go through all that Security stuff then the Buyer should be advised about it at Checkout, and not 4 days after payment is taken out of the Buyers Credit Card.

Just an Update- They did refund my Credit Card quickly once the Order was cancelled by me, so their Customer Service is OK."

"The first part of order came very quikly with the exseption of one item. I have been trying to get answers on the missing item for two weeks via "live chat" and phone. I'm missing one FlySky FS-GT3B Digital Receiver. The item is only worth $35 but the extra receivers I did receive are useless without the controller and time is running out for me to get things together before x-mass. The Toll free number does not work and the other number is mission impossible. Contact through "Live Chat" is a waste of time. This was an easy fix but I'm not willing to waste anymore time on this. Feel stupid for not checking Hobbypartz customer’s reviews prior to making the order. Hope this helps someone else from making the same mistake.

"Had no problems on order of a CT6B tx/rx, batteries, AC6 charger, and misc parts. Low prices and fast shipping, didn't have to deal with customer support."

"I liked using this site for two main reasons; Price and speed of shipping. My order arrived 1 day early. Everything works great so far and i'm happy I paid a quarter of the price compared to my lhs. I will order from them in the future!"

"AVOID THIS PLACE! Sent wrong item ($72 lower value). Won't refund. Customer service horrible. Online chat a waste of time. No supervisors available to resolve issues. "

"I've placed many orders from HobbyPartz, NitroPlanes, and Xheli and had very few issues. They have very fast shipping, and good support as long as you use the forum rcdiscuss.com to report your issues.

For example, I've had ESC's purchased go up in smoke on the first flight, and hobbypartz had a replacement in the mail the next day. This was because I had my order #, and photos of the ESC posted on RCDiscuss.

They don't get a 5 star rating though, and that has to do with two issues others have brought up.

#1: They do not respond quickly to email & phone inquiries. They have a live chat and phone # listed on their site, but they do not get back to you in a reasonable period of time. This may have to do with trying to save money on support staff to keep thin margins, but its a price you pay for low cost parts.

#2 They will keep items listed that haven't been in stock for months to years. It seems like some major problems in their supply chain, but the sites are full of items that seem to be perpetually out of stock. If something isn't going to be in stock for 3+ months, don't list it on the site guys.

When all is said and done, they are still the best place to get off/chinese brand RC parts and models. Their prices are lower than the few other US based resellers of brands like Hobbywing, FlySky, Dynam, Exceed (and the other rebrands of the same models); their shipping is really fast; and their support is still miles ahead of the Hong Kong based retailers."

"Purchased a flysky GT3B transmitter and receiver and had zero problems. Ordered Sunday, received confirmation minutes later and on Monday part shipped with ups tracking number. Free shipping from CA to IL took 4 business days which is normal. Only merchant I could fine in the US that had this item priced this good out the door. I would buy here again with no reservations (as long as the part is in stock). The reviews on this site scared me but I had zero problems. "

"This company has a lot to learn about customer relations. I was banned from purchasing from them because I returned one defective product. A customer service rep claimed I had "excessive returns." I subsequently got the problem resolved after complaining to a couple forums and contacting a different customer service rep who was a bit more competent than the first. Hopefully it was an isolated incident, but I find the fact that this even happened somewhat disturbing. "
