Is it me or has HeliKraft increased their prices on the Align T-Rex parts?

Sure the carbon blades were not $21.70 the other day. ?

Yeah they have gone up. They were $11 or $12 the other day.
They still don't have them in stock.

$11 or $12?? They were never that low. I bought the CF baldes from them at $19.80 a few days ago (actually less becasue they had a 12% discount thing going). If it is 21.70 now, then they did indeed raise the price.

Must be because the last 30 sets they had was all bought up in about 2 hours....

dnam "Baldes" Can't find them on their site

Yeah but I just checked my last invoice as I got those blades to for the same price19.80 less 12% , everything I ordered, first aid kit, links sets, link upgraded sets all are up in price since I placed my order. The whole align range has been increased in price from the looks of it at helikraft. They are asking more than the prices on aligns own website.

Maybe they will be losing my business to:rolleyes

Now what? We going to start complaining about the cost of parts for the "Best" flying and biggest bang for buck micro out there? $21.00 is still heaps cheaper than the alternative isn't it?

Think of the poor suckers who paid $85 for the helihobby/microheli swash plate. Aligns is how much? $27.00? $40 Aus.

And no I havent given up on mine yet. I have been tinkering.

Great to hear you haven't given up on the T-rex Peter!

Yeah, those Align upgrades coming out will sure be interresting. Man, can't believe how they are just pushing forward! The boss of the heli dept. must be sleeping well with all the great sales success of the T-rex...

Pretty funny about Helikraft's sales strategy. They still have the 12% sale but have raised the original price.

Anyway it is still cheaper than factory prices if you take off the 12%. If they keep the 12% sale then it's OK, otherwise just order from the US.

Prices gone up

Hi All,

We had to raise prices as we received an email from manufacturer instructing us to do so.

A copy of the email is available for viewing on the Align RC product page on our website.

In short, we're not doing in on purpose, just have to respect the manufacturers request.

Cheers,

John

Thanks John for the letting us know here on Runryder!

Thought it was strange you gave 12% off then uped the prices. Now we see why. By the way your service is always great, very fast and good communication with the buyer! Keep up the good work.
