Ian, have just been talking to Kev on Facebook, and I'm afraid that all stock is now out of their hands :(

Microtech
 
Gutted, Microtech was one of the best web sites to use, if not the best. Hope the people involved are Ok.

ianhaye 12-08-2010 03:53 PM
is there someone else taking on the company?

Such a shame to see a great shop go.

Sorry to hear this guys. always a shame to see a decent shop go:(
Good luck with future ventures to all involved.

People ideally need to stop buying all their gear from Hong Kong and such like and start shopping with the UK shops..

Sad day and hope you guys get back on your feet.

It's a big shame that these have gone through, but I am sure others will be glad of the business.

Ref - shopping abroad, you can't blame every shop failure on that.

I know you can't, but it certainly contrubutes.

to a very small extent, yes, as most is stuff you just can't buy in the UK, but this isn't the place to argue this old chestnut!!

Not meaning to start an argument, just stating my thoughts.

Anyway as I said before good luck to those affected.

DCM 12-08-2010 06:22 PM
I have used them, and their site was always one I would go to if I needed parts or paints, first!!

Microtech were definately near the top on my favourites list due to them being very helpful some 2 years ago when i was just starting out in rc, along with Marc at Mk racing they definately had the right atitude
All the best guys

OMG... this is unbelievable! I got an order from them a few days ago. There were my favourite online shop. My car has large Microtech stickers on it. :o
I don't think they ever failed to deliver next day and the prices were the best.

If they can't make it in this recession, who can?:confused:

Very sad...

That's a terrifying thought! It can't have been a cash/sales problem that forced closure, can it?!

Most likely cause by a mile I'm afraid.

:(

There are a couple of shops that I wouldn't give a monkeys about if they went out of business due to their customer service and piss poor staff - Microtech ISN'T one of them.
