also had some pretty mixed results. Some great experiences and some not
so great. The not so great got highlighted with purchasing some monokote
via the web site, getting bad rolls, and having to spend more than the cost of
the product shipping them back to verify that they were bad in order to get
them replaced. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

side, and I hope this isn’t taken as a biased plug…
Because I’m sponsored by Airtronics, I’ve recently had the
opportunity to get acquainted with Global Hobbies and Hobby People. So
far, my experience there has been excellent. The owner maintains a blog,
and comments are answered directly. Several of the product managers maintain
a public “presence” on the forums (RCU, eZone, and most recently,
the Airtronics User group). I realize they are a much smaller
player, but they seem to be paying attention to the right things and listening
to feedback and answering questions. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
