The HobbyKing Addiction....

Just placed an order with Hobbyking today and happened to click on the "Your Orders" section...

I tallied up all the orders and was rather surprised at how much I've spent there....

$1301.02 Shocked

My names Bob, and I'm a HobbyKing Addict Laughing

Oldest one I can find on my account was 23/7/2009. I know I placed some orders before that, but that was back when they were UnitedHobbies, so I just assume they didn't bring the UH data across to HK at the change.

Just got one of their little stadium trucks today along with my lipos from the Aus warehouse, only took 3 days from order to recieved. Laughing

Take that figure and estimate what it would have been BEFORE hobbyking. Cool
