I would guess Mike will take pre-orders soon and just in time for the RCM Bash on the Sunday, September 28th

jhautz 07.17.2008 10:17 AM

Looks like that will be a very nice deal.

One question.... How do you find all of this stuff before anyone else? Are you just surfing all day? I dont get how you can be so fast on this stuf all the time.

Arct1k 07.17.2008 10:29 AM

shhhh.... b-p-p.com (troy) is the other site like RCM I rank up there for customer service - Unfortunatly/fortunatly he didn't get any MMMs in version 1.

I like to support the little guy who offers great value and service... He's always done me very well and hence I keep tabs and visit everyone once in a while.

He launched this new site design yesterday...

PS very keen to point out not wanting to take any business away from Mike at all - Support the small guys though where you can...

I love BPP. Troy has always been great. I got all my 18th scale hop up stuff from him, and have gotten a couple of 1/10th MM systems from him as well.

Ooh... :yes: May have to pick this up in August so its on the next credit card bill. :rofl: Should do nicely in my 8ight build. :yes:

bl-is-future 07.17.2008 02:42 PM

ah the power of a credit card. Just be careful and don't get to behind in debt.

gixxer 07.17.2008 02:51 PM

Actually its $265.95 once you put it in your cart. I already have one on order threw tower but have had good service threw b-p-p before.

Arct1k 07.17.2008 03:10 PM

That is sickening!

drkros3 07.17.2008 03:14 PM

does any one know the max rpm these motors can take? like could i run it on my revo with 6 cells and just low gearing.

cause if its like a neu motor it should be able to handle it fine.

Arct1k 07.17.2008 03:39 PM

Given it is paired with MMM I think they will be fine on 6s...

drkros3 07.17.2008 04:00 PM

ok cool i guess my revo might be getting a new esc and motor come aug. lol

TexasSP 07.17.2008 05:36 PM

I don't know how that guy does it be he sure kicks the poop out of everyone else. Nice find!

tc3_racer_001 07.17.2008 05:40 PM

ooo, and i got a 10% off voucher :D (thanks to slow shipping) maybe i will buy one and chuck it up on ebay and try to make a profit and keep the motor.

DRIFT_BUGGY 07.18.2008 06:50 AM

They spelt MOSTER wrong. Mentioned on there about conversion kits, wonder if he knows anything about them

jayjay283 07.18.2008 01:37 PM

BPP blows that guy Troy still owes me $140 from a MM and BEC he never sent or refunded. Been over 40 days now !! Between him and and the Monster I have $320 of Castle Creations NOTHING this summer. :party::diablo:

Troy is usually good about getting the product to his customers and if he cant he will refund you, I had an issue with a NIMh pack for my RC18 and I told him to send it to me when hr got it in which I am still waiting on, and since it was only $25 I am not too worried about it but in your case I would ask for a refund

Yeah I did ask for a refund, weeks ago, Im sure he will get around to it, I just like to bash the old fart for slacking LOL Id probably buy from him again even though this didnt work out. Im so cheap no way I could pass up a $100 MM with free shipping

drkros3 07.18.2008 02:07 PM

you think this price might change like towers did?

I have been waiting for a refund from them too. I sent back two lipo packs that wouldn't fit my e-revo, he said they had a 30 day return policy and would give a full refund. Been waiting since the 6th, hopefully he will get around to it soon. :whip:

tc3_racer_001 07.19.2008 10:10 PM

took 3 months to get my charger. i was happy though cause when i got it, it already had v1.5 loaded into it. and i got it on their memorial day sale so with 7% off and free shipping i got it landed for $150 :)

Arct1k 07.25.2008 12:44 PM

PS CC are now indicating more like late Sep due to Olympic Games (i.e. Chinese plant shutdowns /limited working)...

The word I have heard is that the Chinese Govt has ordered a shutdown of factories that are located around the Olympic village ( a lot of them) IMO so things like pretty for the foriegn visitors.

Arct1k 07.25.2008 01:28 PM

Yes and odd number plate cars drive on odd numbered days and even visa versa :)

Ditto... the mamba max was finally shipped though, and it means I can now get a monster combo for $240 delivered :D

gixxer 07.25.2008 10:58 PM

I hope I get one of those vouchers when he finally refunds me for my batteries. Its been 22 days since He said to send them in for a full refund but yet I haven't heard anything back since then.

tc3_racer_001 07.26.2008 08:18 PM

you most likely will...

btw, whats your coupon code?

jayjay283 07.26.2008 09:12 PM

I got my money back from Troy a couple days ago, but only after filing a complaint through paypal and playing the game there. No 10% voucher lol

Sammus 07.26.2008 09:15 PM

I can't give you my code sorry man. It's a unique one with my name in it and I think its for one use only.

tc3_racer_001 07.26.2008 09:31 PM

yeah i know... ive got one too, just was curious if it was the same thats all :)

(afaik they are only linked to the account)

I think that is my next option. I will probably send him one more email letting him know that I will be going that route if I dont hear back from him. I just find it odd that he was fairly quick on replying until I sent the package back. Now I cant even get an email response and he has had the package for 3 weeks now.

George16 07.26.2008 09:45 PM

You can never pay me to buy from him again. In fact, the guys here (on base) will not be buying from him either.

Well I still haven't haven't heard from Troy so I opened up a case this morning. Amazingly paypal now says funds pending and a refund has been issued. Guess he doesn't really worry until you file a clain.

He does have great prices but his service is a little lacking :surprised:, not the first issue I have had with him but the first time it was this bad. Other times were just slow shipping or not having the item in stock even though the site said it was.

Anyways just happy to get some $$$ back. Now maybe I will buy a Slash with it.

Funny isnt it, you can email him 5 times telling him you are going to open a paypal case if he doesnt respond, he doesnt respond, but when you do open a case he instantly gets your money back. Sort of like an irritating forced savings account with no interest lol. 40 days later you get to buy something else, somewhere else :wink:

gixxer 07.28.2008 03:52 AM

I wouldn't say funny, but I am glad that my first paypal claim went quickly. Still a little irritated that it had to come to that though.

hailmick 07.28.2008 05:58 AM

im going to order from him thats bbp
should i pay by paypal then to cover me

ffactory666 07.28.2008 06:26 AM

I always had great service from Troy , but my last order turned into a bit of a pain in the a** but never got to the stage like some of you guys.

I don't think i will be using BPP anymore.
