Default YMC RACING

Hi guys now i think this is getting a bit annoying my mate is after a brushless combo. He was looking through the racer magazine it gives a list of quit a few shops he rang YMC yeovil model shop he has rang there only twice at diffrent times just to make sure they have the gear. He is after he told me the guy who picked up the phone said to him "oh are you the guy who keeps on ringing about the brushless combo" my mate yeah then the ymc man said " just find somwhere els you keep on ringing me and not buying" ......Ok so whats wrong with just inquiring about some of the products. I feel sorry for mick he was spoken rudely the said the gear mick was gonna pay in total was £325 for other stuff at ymc but after hearing this he said "they take the brushless combo and the lot ans stick it up there A*S" ill find a diffrent shop. He did not deserve to be spoken to like that after all he is a customer

How many times did he ring? Are his questions as daft as yours? And did he draw breath in the whole conversation or was it just one long continuous sentence?

Looking at it from the model shops point of view, they're giving advice for free and being asked same questions many times. Gets a bit frustrating when there is no sale, when they could have been speaking to real customers.

Why doesn;t your friend get the info from here. Then when he knows what he wants - ring the shop and order it.

I agree with Chris - and as much as anything i would rarely take advice from a Model Shop anyway on specific products unless it's someone like DMS / MK Racing as they are racers themselves and obviously specialise in 1/10th off road so you'll get experience too rather then just someone trying to sell you what they have on the shelf.

Most general hobby stores don't really use the products so aren't always best to ask for advice on specifics - that's why places like Oople are soooo useful for anyone needing advice as they can look at all the products (and at times) get unbiased opinion's from lots of racers who all ACTUALLY USE The products.

Millzy i think you add your own bits, V-Mag is retarded and struggles to pay attention for a full sentence. I would hate to have to speak to the guy face to face

Vin-mag, you ought to try Safari as an internet explorer. It is really good, it underlines spelling mistakes in red. Not sure if it does grammer, I don't make enough mistakes to find out. (joking), but im being serious dude, can download it for free.
