Just picked up a 3D Hobbyshop Edge 540 from adchobbystore.com out of California... I was charged shipping on the initial sale and then taxes and brokerage fees COD once the package arrived. Luckily the hobbystore declared the Edge's value much much less then what it was worth and in the end I only paid about $70 bucks in brokerage and taxes

Hope this helps.

If anyone is interested in checking out my purchase I put up some photos on NRCM's forum

I had an order from Tower Hobbies shipped that way and I didn't end up paying anything outside of regular shipping. Although some will only ship UPS anyway

Stop being a wuss and man up and get a 50cc you little girl! Enough with the tiny planes aleady. Time to climb out of the sandbox and play with the big boys... Grin

And no lame excuses about how to transport it.... you got a truck don't ya?
