The motor thing is making me ill.....I have a large order for motors with Mabuchi now for some months now. When I tried contacting them around the time of the tsunami to check on my order, I could not get hold of anyone at Mabuchi.....all emails bounced and all phone calls could not go thru. There used to be a sales contact in California with the company but they did away with that office with the current down turn in the econony, is all I can amagin.

When I placed the original motor order I was told it would be a minimum of 19 weeks for delivery because the motor I use is a special build and not a stock item. At last comunication I was told the motors would be ready on June 17th, and by ocean shipment that would be the middle of July before we would have them .....so with that, I asked to have 500 of them shipped by AIR EXPRESS so I would get them in a couple of days after the finish date. I don't care what the cost is to ship!! I just want them to get here for my customers.

I am very sorry for the delays, but there is nothing more I can do. I even ordered 250 motors from Kysan motors giving them my specs to help with the delay, but these turned out not to meet my specs and I will not use them.

SO,
We were holding motors for the orders we have now.... and as of this time we have enough in stock to fill about 1/2 of the pending orders.....so next week we will be completely out of motors.

When things change I will let you know.
