Anyone know if http://www.microrcracing.com/ shop is still active?

The web site is still running, but hasn't been updated since May 2004. I've been unable to contact these people via phone or email -- there is simply never an answer to either.

Anyone know who these people are? I have an active order, yet have gotten no confirmation other than the one that comes automatically from PayPal.

sales@microrcracing.com?

They should be answering your inquiries.

I had sent them an inquiry back on Oct 8, 2004 and they replied to me Oct 8, 2004.

try sending another email to them.

Well, I don't think it's worth a panic yet. But we should keep an eye out. Does anyone know who runs the site? How about a different phone number than the one that is posted there?

For starters I've opened a PayPal complaint and will let it run its course. There have been plenty (I'm sure) people who have successfully ordered from MicroRCRacing, so maybe this is just a fluke.

I used to hear quite a few complaints about that place on mini-zracer.com when they were selling their "mini monster trucks" that they custom made there in house, long shipping turn-arounds, not responding to support emails, etc. I also know their website hasn't changed much in the roughly year and a half that I've known about it, looks exactly the same with the same parts listing

found the thread:
http://www.mini-zracer.com/forums/sh...=micro+monster

micromonster.net I believe is owned by the same people, either that or microrcracing.com is the only place that resells it? If so then ignore this as it doesn't apply

There's little you can do at the moment. I would open a PayPal complaint and let it run its course. Be sure to keep any supporting documents, emails, etc. and try to log any time you have attempted to contact this merchant.

I've met the guys at microrcracing and they didn't seem to be the type that would perpetrate the fraud you're mentioning. Of course, the last time I spoke to them was about two years ago when they had a micro track and a storefront. My guess is that they're out of business and haven't been checking their e-mails.
I wish that there was something more I can help you with.
