      Most of the Kmarts and Toys r us around the place have Compact chargs, but you probably already know that. The toy r us in the city recently closed anyway, so forget that one.
      Hobby place in Lonsdale St, near Melbourne Central shopping center, has BitChargs, but prepare yourslf for $80 a kit. They also sell Compacts, but at the same price. 😯 They are only $48 at Kmart.
      There arent that many toy and hobby shops in the city center. Most of the shops are in the burbs. With looking for a clone, its really pot luck if they sell them at a toy store or not. Some service stations even have them.
      Sorry, cant be a huge help here. I guess Melbourne just isnt the micro rc mecca it should be. I think most of us here are either buying via the net or getting compacts.
      Good luck. Let us know how you go.

      That is poor that they sell compacts at the same price, but I guess they can take advantage because not everyone is going to know the difference, thats business.

      Yeh the market will have clones, the usual market assortment.
      I think Hobbyplace charges about $25 for the BCG gear set.

      I thought Barrell lived in tassie, maybe I just made that up in my head though. You should order some things on the internet anyway, it makes it easier to get what you really want. Here’s his link anyway.
