Guys,
I came across this website : http://www.hobbycity.com
They seem to stock some good electric stuff ( A123 batteries that i was interested in ) .
Now the cool thing there seems to be that they give you the option on what you want to put in the custom declaration form .. Ie Replacement Parts , Hobby Parts etc. .

Let me know if anyone of you ordered stuff from here, and your experience ..
Thanks
Gaurav

Just got my parcel from HobbyKing !!!!
I had ordered the A123 battery packs - 6.6V 2200mAH
and a couple of single single cells.
Got everything in great condition and well in time too.

These A123s would go in my 50CC  gasser, 1 for the ignition, and 2 for the RX .
Would post pictures here as well.

Total order was for $197 ( including basic shipping ) .
Had them under declare, and note the contents as "Replacement parts" .
No custom fee was charged, and the small parcel delivered to my doorstep today.
They did take 7 days to ship the order though, but once shipped, it came through in 12 days.

The only issue with Hobbycity.com is their shipping charges and they take a long time to process the order at their warehouse to ship the goods.

Don't worry Atul I am 99.999999 percent sure that you won't have to pay any customs duty ( speaking from my experience). I too am waiting for my order of  a brushless in- runner and a battery pack for my Greatplanes Electrostreak, to arrive.

good luck
