      I ordered my 206 bullet, a 3.0 motor, and a battery+tire set.

      It said shipped on the ninth of july,

      and arrival date was the sevententh.

      I didn’t recieve the parcel yet.

      Also,

      Is there any review on the 206 bullet?

      So far,

      I am not very plesed with toyeast. You don’t know when the heck your package will arrive, and you don’t know what it comes with. Good luck to you.

      I have ordered twice from toyeast and I got both my packages 2 or 3 days before the expected arrival date. I have never had any problems with them. By the way I live in San Diego, CA.

      What shipping method did you use?

      I had Air…

      Could somebody please explain the Expected arrival date thing?

      Even better if someone had AIM.

      I had air too. You can see when your package is expected to arrive when you go back to toyeast.com. Just log in,go to check order, click on your order numberand see when your package is expected to arrive.

      That’s the problem when ordering from overseas…there’s a few good US domestic dealers and you won’t have to worry about stuff like this..

      my shop is http://www.junkyspot.com

      Other great domestic retailers include: http://www.jdmtoys.com, http://www.tinyrc.com, http://www.cosmogames.com, and http://www.sigmaautomotive.com

      Give them all a shot and at least compare pricing plus shipping and delivery times vs overseas shops to the US. As I mentioned in another post, overseas companies are great in terms of selection but for pricing with shipping and delivery, it issometimesonly worth it when you are in australia, england, and etc..places closer to HK and Japan..not always, but often.

      Here’s an example.. let’s pick a random model..Lancer Evolution – Red. ToyEast pricing is $23.40. Mine is $24.99 on sale right now, and I am in California.Let’ssayI even increase the price to $29.99 whichseems to be average US retailer price. I would charge $4.50 shipping and handling within the continental united states, using USPS priority mail w/ delivery confirmation. After you placed the order, if it is instock (which it is right now), it’s at your door in 2-3 days for$34.49. ToyEastI *believe* charges between $8 and $11, solet’s say 9.50 average, so they would come out ahead at $32.90, about $2 savings. Would you pay the$2 not to worry aboutif and when your package is coming and to getit quicker? It’s a personal choice of course and the pricing was an example because some of the domestic retailers can and do beat toyeast and hlj’s prices when shipping is included.

      NOW..on the other hand, any locations closer to HK and Japan have a major advantage over domestic US retailers because not only do they get the pricing cheaper, but their shipping is also cheaper and delivery times are fast as well 🙂 Lucky blokes!
