**RANT** Crappy Hobby Shops

[theMonster]

I don't know about you guys, but I live in a city of over 2 million people with about 40 hobby shops and THEY ALL SUCK!!!! Any time I go to get parts for anything (X-mods in this case) they either don't stock it or don't have it in stock. Can you friggin' believe that only 1 out of 40 hobby shops carry Mini-Z parts, so any motors, tires, wheels etc....I have to order by net or mail. Can you also believe that out of 40 shops the only 180 motor any one carries is the stock RS4 or the team Orion!!! Can you believe that the friggin' mail order/net places want $6 to ship a GPM 180 motor that weighs less than an ounce??? ARRRRGGGGHHHHH!!!!! Please feel free to post your frustations here as well!! I hope I'm not alone in smashing my head into a brick wall over not being able to get stuff....
