Everything is literally still up in the air..which is what makes it fun to take part from the beginning 🙂 We can find a suitable location that seems to be the most conveniently available for the majority.

Remember right now we’re still in the “brainstorming” stage…feel free to hit http://groups.msn.com/JunkySpotand pipe in with your comments.

Yah by a few dollars after shipping…

Example: Audi TT their price: 92.70. shipping to California: 21.62. Total: $114.32 Delivery time? Airmail from HK…1 week at least..usually. Been enjoying reading the posts everywhere about their varied delivery times to the United States.

Audi TT at Junky Spot: 103.99. shipping to anywhere in the US: 12.50. Total: $116.49. Delivery time? Priority USPS w/ delivery confirmation, average 2-3 days.

You make the call.

Hi snubber,

Shoot me an email at my webshop.. jspot@junkyspot.com (http://www.junkyspot.com) with a detailed list and I’ll see what I can do for you.

[Jaydeman]

Ah and jdm has agood selection of aftermarket upgrade parts as well btw 🙂

Let us know when they get the other cars in too..DigiQ and iRacer..I don’t plan on carrying those but get requests, so when they get them in stock I’ll be referring people to them 🙂

Hi kwong,

I actually meant total price. From reading your posts (and the other guy..sprintz or something?) if they sold bit char-gs at shows from 30-35, but then sell them on the website for 35-40..thatwould mean$5 for shipping. So if someone buys 2 cars..then it’s really an extra $10 for shipping, and etc. That’s my only criticism, the shipping is misleading.

Their show prices sounded pretty decent though 🙂 I assume they do local pickups and subtract $5 from the price?

I received better pricing on a couple models, and received some new models I was missing, sosome of my prices were lowered as well…jdm still beats me on the Celicas and Yoshi still though 🙂 And the other models that my pricing is too crazy on I just won’t stock, sell, or list, but I do now have the majority of them from $23.99 and up.

I’ve been referring the customers that isometimes cannot help to jdm.

[Jaydeman]

I’ve read the the Bit Char-G frequencies are not allowed in the UK as well, hence a reason for the repackaging and difference in freqs.

[Jaydeman]

Hm nevermind, I do beat their prices…most of the time..they must have upped their prices since I last looked maybe. Ah well.

reposting this from the General Discussion forum:

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!

If you are in the US, give my webshop a try too..it’s at http://www.junkyspot.com

It is definitely more worth it to go to toyeast or hlj and etc if you are in australia or england, because shipping and delivery times aren’t bad. If you are in the US, however, delivery times take longer and shipping is what kills you when you order from these places.

Make sure to compare the total price including shipping when comparing pricing. For example, JDM does have a large selection and good pricing. I beat about half their prices and they beat about half of my prices. On some models my shipping costs are cheaper total and sometimes theirs are cheaper. I’m glad to see more US retailers popping up. As a customer myself, I was getting really tired of seeing Bit Char-G cars sell in the SF Bay Area everywhere for $45…which is why I started up shop 🙂

[Jaydeman]

Hmmm I just opened up shop this past monday, pricing’s a little erratic, depending, but I’m located in California…I wouldn’t call myself a distributor, just a guy that gets stuff cheap sometimes 🙂
