Sanxler is sloooow.

I guess you all know Sanxler by now. For the ones who don't. He sells cheap models on Ebay.
Today, 2 models arrived. After 4 months waiting. It's amazing mike. :alien2:

For those who are still waiting for their models to arrive. Send him email once a week asking how long it will take and whether he has forgotten it or not.

I don't believe he is currently selling on ebay anymore. I heard his account got cut because of too many negative feedbacks. It happened before, so.... Any word on his new name? And his email address[possibly newer one]?

I still need to get some replacement parts from him. I got my models but they were poorly wrapped in some green paper, while going around the world to get to me they were squashed, dropped, torn, poked, etc...:mad: :mad:

Guys, why do you bother? His prices are not so great and he charges too much for shipping (like almost twice the amound the reputable online hobby shops ask). Plus his shipping i nowhere near what HLJ and Hobby Search (got a package from them the other day - all in great condition) offer. Why not stick with them? :confused:

If I only knew that before I ordered.....:(

This guy is intentionally ignoring me now, all I need is a Fujimi Subaru Impreza 2d version 5 body [got cracked] replaced. If I had only knew...

At that time I ordered, he only had about 7 or 8 negative feedback, so I figured it was nothing, maybe a mistake.

If i can't get a replacement body from him, anyone have any suggestions as to where else I can get it from? I tried to email Fujimi at fujimi@shizuokanet.ne.jp which I found on there site[i can't read Jap so i found this is the only email address on there page].

Hobby Link and those others are pretty good prices as well, I just figured since Sanxler agreed to mark off 'Gift' on the customs slip thats all. Saves me a few bucks of taxes.:rolleyes: Turns out, its even worst.

One look at this guys feedback list should be enough to stop anyone
from dealing with him !
I've heard other horror stories on other message boards about this guy,
even on this board some time ago !
:bandit: Mike

Forget its a lost cause... im still waiting for my Tamiya honda Pons from October 2001.. LOL.. well i gave up on it.....

I have to agree with Ales on this one....stick with a good company you can trust

N.B. -> After a long period of 4-5 months waiting, I quickly came to understand.

Concider, I made that faulty decision 4-5 months ago, how was I suppose to know it would turn out like this? He never had that hefty load of negatives back then.:rolleyes:

I am sticking with TamiyaKing on ebay, since he is local, no duty or taxes!:D Hobby Link will be my equipment supplier. :p

After giving up on my kit that i won from sanxler, i think 8 months ago.. i think it was october 2001. I came from work today and saw that it was here.. I WAS SURPRISED!! Well anyways package came like it was a ball in a soccerfield.. here some pics

Personnaly, i buy my model from a guy called tamiyaking on ebay...

He got good price and very fast shipping (took 2 or 3 day to receive)

You can contact him and get model that are not in auction too...

Sure it's not the japan price.. but it's my only source to get model fast

the box.. look how crushed it is.. luckily and surprisingly nothing was broken!!

Has anyone dealt with SangPolly on ebay?

Wow, you were lucky that it was a motorcycle kit - in a car kit, the body would probably have been completely crushed. Instant convertible!

Serge, wow! I'm happy for you, it came without damage to the parts? Amazing!

Can you tell me his email address? I want to know if its the same one I have, I need to get some replacement parts for the parts that broke. Where else can I get Fujimi replacement parts from? Other than HLJ...

Vric...
I know what u mean, im going to buy from hlj or some other reputable store... I did not know back then, I went with him because i previously ordered 3 kits from him and everything went smoothly, then after that it went dowhill...

Oops.. didnt see the other questions

Jay@AF
I have never personally ordered from him, have emailed him with questions and seems and alright guy.. looking at his feedback he looks good.. and he sets up his pages like stellamodells and rl075(other japanase sellers on ebay,very reputable) so im guessing hes good.
XenoKryst
Well i have two emails.... when i first bought the 3 kits he had another name and email in ebay.. that email was waynetang99@yahoo.com.. after that he went under the name sanxler in ebay and his email is sanxler@yahoo.com. When i was constantly emailing him i sent emails to both adresses.

Oh yeah if you want replacement parts forget it he probably wont send u any, after getting like the fifth kit i ordered from him(Avex dome NSX) the box came crushed like every other, and the roof did crash, i constatnly email him about that and he said yeah he would send a replacement, but never....

Anyways anyone know how can i fix that?? Its not that really bad.. there only bent... here are some pics of it:

sorry for double post... got frustrated and hit the POST REPLY button like a hundred times.. is it just me or does this forum go slow as a bug!!! geezzz sometimes i cant even see the page because its too slow and i have a cable connection!!! Anybody think of moving to a different place??

Anybody think of moving to a different place?? The pic upload thing fails all the time now. Look up the alternative mathod of uploading pics in the FAQ. That way's better. :)

Your's is not that bad. My Subaru body has a crack in the rear right column that supports the windshield. *PLUS! the whole top of the car is bent and crook-ed so even if I fixed the crack, the whole top would be slanted. **PLUS! the column for the side window is broken right off.

Hey XenoKryst,

I believe I am unfamiliar with them. Care to fill me on the details and info? :confused:

here's the site.... http://www.rainbowten.co.jp/english/

I know they can get replacement parts from tamiya.. if i remember correctly if you ask them for another kit they will try to get them..

And dont worry about their reputability. i have order R/C products from them and everything went smooth..

WOW!!! I have the same sheets as you! Great choice! Ralph Lauren all the way!!!

I see some pictures about bend parts.
That's the problem I have on all 4 cars I got from Sanxler. What can I do to make it right again, just bending it won't help much. (I'm talking about those poles next to the front window (don't know how they call it))

Try (carefully) a hairdryer.

hey XenoKryst,

I posted in Rainbowsix's forum about getting parts for fujimi cars and this is what they posted, i think your in luck... i suggest you write to them and tell them what part you want.


hello,
Im asking this in behalf of a friend, would you be able to get a specific part of a 1/24 scale car kit from fujimi? I dont know what car it is right now he hasnt told me.. thanks for any info

Yes, we can get Fujimi parts basically. However, of course we can't give you 100% credit on this matter until you kindly adivse the exact name of the kit, then we can contact the manufacturer if the parts are available. Anyway, we will get the parts under the same terms for TAMITA after parts order, if the parts are available. Thank you!

Whoa! Cool! The kit I need parts for is the Fujimi Subaru Impreza TypeR STi Version V 2-Door coupe (FUJ03531). Where\Who do I write to?

I wonder how much it will cost? It would be so much better if sanxler replaced it for me, but what can you do huh? I guess I will order than. Is there an email address I can get through to rainbow ten?

This is soo COOL! Thanks Serge!:D :eek: :D :silly2:

Hey,

Email you can ask questions with is info@rainbowten.co.jp

I suggest you check out their website and also read the TAMIYA AFTER PARTS page.... this are sorta their rules for ordering extra parts from manufactures, basically what it comes down to is that you can cancel ur order once its place because its an extra part there getting for you and only you..

There usually fast answering emails... if not try their BBS(Forum) in their website, thats where i posted the question.. well good luck and tell me how it goes...

No, I got them a while back at Robinson's May when they were having a sale...and I had a scratch coupon. when the lady scratched the coupon, it said that I had 40% off of the sale price! That was a good deal...I love those sheets.

I ordered an RX7 from sangpolly along with some other misc stuff for my bit-charg RX7 (coinsidence i swear) it came beautifully packaged and guickly too. i was surprised at the speed of the shipping. less than a week. the box was covered in sheets of styrofoam and then covered in tough green paper. I'll definitely buy from him again...

no problem... but where do you get your models for cheaper? i shop from him since he's got the goods that i cant find here. i paid $22 shipping included for the RX7. id expect to pay at least that for the same thing shipped from this side of the planet.

HLJ can usually beat him, but there are other folks on ebay that can undercut him from time to time, too.

Hi all, I'm new on here and just got back into model kits after a spell of collecting die-casts....:D
I have dealt with Sanxler and he was slow, and just like many others when I got my two kits I ordered they were just wrapped in brown paper and arrived crushed, luckily the contents were fine. As for Sangpolly, I have used them a few times and their service is much better :) but personally I prefer HLJ.
