To best1hobby. They've really one-upped on their site, and even though I haven't ordered from them yet, I'm more tempted to now than I was before. They've really worked on their game putting in box pictures and a new searching system (at least in the automotive section). They seem to stock quite a bit now that I look at it, and I spot many kits I wouldn't mind having. Thanks best1hobby.

I ordered from them before. Ordered some wheels on a friday night, got them wednesday. 3 business days.

Curious thread...

I personally don't find the site that friendly at all, the search results are a little odd and different to looking through pre-defined product lists giving an inconsistent feel. Also, whats the difference for example from adding to cart and buying now?
Disabled right click is hugely annoying as I use this regularly for opening items in a new window in IE and leaving the original window intact. Odd that the right click is disabled when you consider that most, if not all the images used on the site are somebody elses to begin with. Many items images are also missing, and the image sizes on results pages are varied which can cause the right side of the page to scroll off, again, this gives an inconsistent experience. And sorry to be picky, but the grammar on the site is awful for one that hails from California.

I have never ordered from them, and from all I know there service may well be superb but I personally wouldn't rate their website as all that.

This is exactly 0.02 cents worth of my opinion.

I agree. It certainly isn't "all that", but they have improved in a few aspects from what they were before. I don't think their changes are finished, though, since it seems their Bandai section is still the same as it has been.

You don't 'need' the right click functionality for this; you can use 'Shift+Left Click' instead.
