If they get crap service, I personally would never return. The business world simply doesn't operate by shooting down small customers.

I've had one shop trying to sell me airplane fuel for a car once, and another recommending crap just to clear their stock. In another shop I was just ignored, and told to wait for 10 minutes whilst the guy chatted to his friend, just small talk as well. Fortunately that shop has gone bankrupt, not a nice thing to say when it's someones livelihood I know, but you can't run businesses like that. Another of the modelshops closed, but was later re-opened under different ownership and it better now.

All I can say is I'm damn glad MK Racing exists for car stuff. I would pay a premium if he demanded one, but funnily enough he's the cheapest around also. If only I could find a RC aircraft shop locally as well with same good service/advice....

mk racing is the best service in the ukfast efficent and helpfull if you buy a bag of screws or a new kit same great service
