Yep, located in Japan where they are made!! You guys in the states can not get one of the other packages that the 777 is made in. It is a 777 Special One with the Sirio Kanai Evo II, to include the Sirio header and pipe! I picked up this whole thing for $830 with shipping. I had to order through a friend that speaks Japanese!

Yeah,
In the states, the Hobby shops are cheaper than websites. For instance, you go to your LHS and need to buy say: some velos wheels for your buggy for a set of four you pay what $30, now try to buy the same thing from Tower and it's like $40 plus shipping! Over here it's just the opposite, LHS sell the same kit which I purchased for 128,000 yen which tends to be about $1200 give or take a few dollars. I got it from a Japanese magazine add which does internet sells and I got it for 85,000 yen which was like I said about $830. I was so stoked, I'm actually trying to get another before I leave in December. I just don't forsee it happening though. I have alot of expenses with this move. Namely, shipping alot of the stuff through the USPS or FedEx that I don't want stolen with my House Hold goods shipment throught the military! I'm gonna ship all of my RC's except the one I'm going to take on the plane with me. That would be my favorite the 777!! Well, talk at you guys later!!

Maybe that's what you think, but I mainly shop online and save hundreds of dollars by shopping online. The tires and rims I generally buy for my buggies I get a brand new set of 4 for $10 + shipping.

If I remember right, Ultimate Hobbies is one of the Japanese shops located in the magazine I was looking at!

Woody

Well, I usually shop through Tower hobbies and they are the biggest rip off! I use Stormer and they seem a little cheaper! I have not been to the states since 3 years ago, but I did go to Hawaii and the parts there seemed alot cheaper than what was online! I mean look at it, most of your LHS will sell a Kanai III for what $550-$600,a nd what is Tower still selling them for $750 what a rip off!!!!!! It really behooves a person to shop ebay!!

Hey Pissant,
Steal money out of your dad's account. Damn, I have to steal money out of my own account, just to get what I want!! But, I beleive the wife is catching on. I was selling some extra stuff I have the other day and she said, "with the money your making, you gonna take me out to dinner?" I said hell no!! I've got money in the account we can use that!! This was my RC money!! Trying to get a few extra parts for my 777 like A-arms, maybe an extra diff, etc....
