There is a lot of information about Hobbycity in other threads right here.  Just search !

hey guys the reason why you guys are getting it so late is due to your shipping method i chose ems and i had the products withing 5 days and but it is costlier. all your purchases can take up to 45 days for delivery

hello sreedhar

which shipping method did you opt for ??

Air Parcel : 6-21 Days transit time.(Incl. Registration)
Air Mail : 6-39 Days transit time. (3.09$)

air parcel is what i have selected so I'm expecting my stuff on 3rd week after dispatch,if yours is airmail then you may get it this coming week or 2

sahil

naa it offers cheap stuff at moderate prices,i have found there shipping prices to be high that is the reason i was hesitant all this time to buy from them but had to order 

B/W if you are looking for good quality lipos go for Hyperion cells,I'm using them and are very good/value for money check out some deals going right now.There shipping is super fast n cheap just see this link (my previous order)

Hi all,
My feedback on two purchases ($100+ on express post and $200 on ordinary post)

Express post reached within 7 days, ordinary post about 40 days. For the ordinary post I also had "processing" state for almost 4 days, the I called them up and withing 2 hours the status changed to "shipped". so I guess it just might have been a case of data entry not being done properly....

Anyway, these fellows usually ship it nicely packed, so enjoy your wait.

Pankaj

thanks sahil

It will reach India in a couple of days max, then the problem is that it keeps showing 'In Transit' in India for a long time. So don't get your hopes up yet, it is still a week before you get it.

hi pankaj

if i can get it by next month 1st week then it should be fine as I'm not in a state to fly as things stand

I like pouring oil over the floor you are leaping on 

Now is the part where you have to endure a frustrating long delay when your package disappears in Indian post and customs quagmire. You'll not see anymore tracking updates. But eventually your package will reach you with or without customs charges, it could take anywhere from a week to a month.

  i wounder what would happen, I'm in no hurry but i like the one week thing

People who buy from Hobbycity would know when they place the order that it would take some time to arrive at ones door.The average delivery times are shown when one is placing the order. People who buy from Hobbycity or any other foreign online shop and select postal service as shipping method are those who are prepared to wait.   

Rao, Sounds like you want to pick up a fight with me. Looking at your profile pic, you seem to be heftily built, so I'm going to pass 

Please don't look for ulterior commercial motives behind every post from vendors. Very very few of my posts here are of commercial nature. There was nothing against buying from hobbycity (or anywhere else from India or abroad for that matter) in my post. In fact if you look at some of my pics you might see hobby city stuff I have had my share of good and bad from buying from them, not hobbycity's fault but that of our post and customs. Let me just say I'm not really pleased with the way they treat stuff we have put our money on.

guys just got my stuff  , it took 16 days for the stuff to arrive after my online tracking went dead


and a total of 21 days after my stuff was processed by hobby-city, i think this is a good time considering the money involved and the quality of the goods look worth the money.

time for some pictures 

I'm really impressed with the motors size its almost equal to my finger
