Spares shortages

[Shannow]

Has anyone else had any trouble getting hold of spares?

I've been looking around for new front lower chassis plates but none of the usual websites I go to have any in. Fusion Hobbies have had to cancel my last order, saying Ansmann couldn't give them a delivery date for any of the items I was after (screw set, rear shock tower mount & front chassis plate). I've got a front chassis plate on order with JE Spares but whilst the other stuff arrived, no chassis plate yet.

I'm thinking they're either going through a lot of these parts or there's a delay on new ones as it's being changed....
