JR-RC on ebay

Jason nose tings

I bought a Tamiya VW body & Monster Beetle windshield from him awhile back...excellent service. If anyone can get a Buggy Champ, it would be this guy. Since he's in Japan, he probably isn't too far from the factory.

Except, he does have over-exagerated rules about blocking ebay users. He blocked me because the post office made a mistake and sent my item back to him. He gave me the option to pay the shipping again or get a refund. I took the refund, then he blocked me. WTF?

There's a build thread started over on the TC website, General Discussions Forum. Psychoatom started it, but it appears he started brainfarting a bit, building into the wee hours of the morning (in Singapore evidently). Nevertheless he has a nice camera and good photos of the gearbox and initial steps.

Ouch.

I'll keep my fingers crossed about my (3rd) latest order. I usually have my E-bay stuff sent to my PO box..so far, no issues other than a long wait. I just ordered a brand new set of 1/10th Buggy Champ tires for my Ultima Baja project up a couple days ago....Now if I could just get this Paragu guy to e-mail me back about the 1.75" Centerline wheel halves I missed out on a couple weeks ago...

My buggy champ came in the mail yesterday. Came with the shirt. I looked it over and almost every part has some subtle difference.

His shipping is great I get things from him in like 4 days. people here in the states take over a week?

You realize this post WITHOUT pics is a serious offence ungainst the age-old unwritten rules of this forum, right?
