You're right. It looks like an exact copy of the AW manuals. The construction looks the same also. Hmmm...

Did you get any kind of confirmation on the shipment ? A tracking number or sort ?

I note that they are not on the site anymore. Maybe this thread got them gone ?

Well, now the composite 100cc is no longer on the site.

I decided to pull the trigger on the 260 (sale or no sale) and it seems to no longer be available.

geeeez. I bought one earlier today, and my shipping was $136.58 to Florida. That is a huge difference on the freight charge.

Damn sure is. Sounds more like what they charge for shipping though....

My problem is if I could get one to MY house for only $500 or so I would do it. However they seem to not be there anymore.

They charged you more because you chose UPS instead of USPS.

Negative.

FedEx was the only option. UPS was not offerd. USPS was offered for small component items only. Not for airplanes in very large boxes.

Okay, well it's very interesting that Florida would be different. I added all info and stopped after I saw the shipping cost. Was 48.00 to my location. Choices were USPS and UPS. Bummer you had to pay that much extra.

The availability says to call....

When I placed my order, there were three showing. I am guessing that they sold the last of the inventory based on this.
