Is there anyone interested in arranging group buys to help out fellow rc tankers and save on customs and/or shipping?

I guess I should elaborate...I agree, Matomart may be set in their shipping, but if orders were combined, they might be able to consolidate packaging and that may lead to a reduction in shipping.

I was thinking more like distributors of accessories like Aber, Atak, even Shapeways; along those lines.

I’m in a Mazdaspeed group and we often had group buys of things like air intakes, downpipes and some other big and small items and between shipping and customs we saved a bit.

Just an idea...

In case you didn’t see, Mato Canada has free shipping for orders of $200.00 or more.
