Looks like Ace is going out..bought many things from them over the years and
never had a problem.
Looks like a good chance to save on some stuff,however I couldn't get the
page to load now...
Email received:
"Hello,
After twenty five years in the radio control industry, we have decided to
retire from the industry. We have developed many friendships throughout the
many years, and something I can not even express how much that will be
missed. We have enjoyed helping you with you hobby and wish you the best for
the future.
Our Appreciation To You:
We have decided in appreciation of the many years of continued business that
our customers have given to us, we would like to do something back to you.
Through January 25th, 2007 we are going to be selling all inventory at a
discount of 40 -50% off manufactures retail pricing. If we are out, and you
would like we will order the product and still honor the discounting. Please
take advantage of this savings.
Online Orders:
If you would still like to order online, please do. The online site will
show original pricing, but we will modify the invoice to reflect the
discounts and email you back with the correct amount. The invoice emailed
back to you will definitely we less.
Phone Orders:
Call us at 1-800-383-2657 (west coast time 10-5 M-F)
Thank You
JR

Note the wording "Through January 25th, 2007 we are going to be selling all
inventory at a discount of 40 -50% off manufactures retail pricing."  MSRP
huh?  Ever seen the MSRP of a Savage X?  $799.99.............minus 40% =
$479.99 which is what they're selling for pretty much everywhere.  <grin>

Seems like a good bargain.................until you read the fine print.

I realized that also, but MSRP on some parts or other items may be worth a
look-see for a good snag.
