im sure it's just not me on the forum! so who else gets a heap of r/c parcels each week from the post man? my neighbours are astounded but are afraid to ask me what they all are :wink: . its either australia post, fed ex or dhl showing up it really keeps them guessing, bet they think im a drug dealer/smuggler of some sort!! :lol: next minute i walk out the door with parcels up to my chin with items ive sold on the bay.

who can relate?? 8)

I can definitely relate to that. I am addicted to getting stuff in the mail.
I have everything delivered to work and my workmates are well aware I am addicted to Rc. I even know the courier by name (Graham ) lol
That way my wife doesn't know about all of the Rc stuff either. (until she goes in the shed at least)

YEA ID SAY its been crazy especially mailing electronics for rcs they go nuts when go through the detectors.I was shipping lots and the postal inspector came by.Luckily he was into rc at that time lol.I used to stay at the postoffice it got so bad with them at one time i had to leave the boxes open to just get to ship them.Neighbors thought some crazy things bout me,cars coming and going all the time doin rc repairs me loading up for rc racedays.All those boxes constantly being loaded in my truck hmmm.Nosey neighbors get to gossiping no tellin what youd hear about yourself later. :lol: 8) Don
