exsperience with Sheldon Hoddies??

[Domination]

well I'm wondering if anyone else has done bussiness with them i ordered a fantome FR18 mill from them and got their site from fantoms own site so i though hey it must be a respectible place and it was at a good price i belive it was $149. Anyway i ordered it around midnight friday so it was like first thing saturday so i ordered it and got 3 Day Select shipping UPS and here it is saturday 7 days later and still no mill so I'm wondering if they suck or I'm just having some bad luck??

What are Hoddies? I know what hotties are but not hoddies.

If it is a typo for hobbies, I have not dealt with them. It's possible and likely that the item was not shipped out immediately for whatever reason. I hate to say it but just because you order something 3 day air does not mean that it will leave immediately.

Yeah, it means that when it becomes available or in-stock, it will be shipped within three days. Normally, they don't process your payment until they are ready to ship. You could check to see if your payment has been processed, if not, they may be waiting for the engines to come in.

Have you tried to contact the hobby store? Have they charged your card? See when they expect to have some in stock. If its longer than you want to wait cancel the order and find someone else.

Just be careful what you call them tomorrow.

I've chosen not to order from the Sheldon's hobbies website because it doesn't seem like it's a reliable site. I've been to their physical store and they're great, but it doesn't look like they maintain their website (it hasn't been updated in ages). Anyway, I decided to order my FR18 from Stormer Hobbies, and everything went well without a hitch. Same price too... $149.00.
