Er... whose lawyer...?

My lawyer, for me. That's the Law. The contract for sale of your goods is with the shop, not the distributor. The shop is responsible for the quality of goods sold, not the distributor. It's the Law of this Land!!

If someone isn't aware of the Law, shame on them, not shame on the distributor. Life isn't fair, and it is typical that people find someone to blame when things go wrong and they don't follow the procedure. Despite the evidence that Horizon are honouring the warranty, that they no longer have an LRP product available to them to replace his speedo with, and that they have made him the same offer they would have made if they had an LRP speedo (part exchange) he slags them off!! Unbelievable...

Yes we had a call from Jamie during last week confirming what we had been told that SMD were to take over from Horizon. As the announcemnet confirms also they will be handling all of the warranty repairs etc from both the units they sell themselves AND the ones already sold via Horizon. With this decison in mind we have decided to continue stocking LRP products (since whilst we were not sure who was taking it on, we could not be sure if we would still get a good supply of products with a quality back up) but now that SMD have been appointed we have every faith in Jamie and his crew, hence LRP will still be on our shelves for the foreseeable future. On top of that we will also be doing the newer LRP items that Jamie is bringing in (ones that Horizon did not make available) including the nitro buggy and 1/18th micro trucks/buggies etc (which are VERY popular)

(We will also be taking this oppurtunity to add J Concepts, Jammin, JQ, Hong Nor and GO products to our line up too, which we have not stocked up until now)

Whilst on the topic of LRP we do have a large selction of items which we have acquired from Horizon that we have placed on special offer, including batteries, esc's, LIPO's, brushless motors, power supplies and much more. They are all on our website in the LRP section at the moment at some very tasty prices for a limited time, these of course will revert back to normal once this stock runs out and we replenish our shelves from SMD
