On swarm list by default buddy-codes are presented in the chronological order.
 
Also we are glad to introduce our RSS-feed. Please have this option activated so you will be informed immediately.

Recently HobbyKing changed their policy regard buddy-codes.
 
HobbyKing does not permit to place more than two items with buddy-price in the basket.

There is statistical data on every web page of our buddy-codes catalogue. This data contains information about available buddy-codes, active users and the best sales.
 
A new option has been added that gives you opportunity to sort the merchandise by the amount of discount. So you can have a list of items that have the best deals from HobbyKing. 

Based on the growing assortment at all warehouses (US, AUS, DE, NL, UK) we decided to separate these warehouses in our catalogue.
 
Now you can choose the warehouse you prefer for shopping and search items in each warehouse separately.

Recently HobbyKing changed their policy and now customers can buy only one item that has buddy-price.

Now you can sort the merchandise on our web site by the price after savings and not only by the size of the discount.

Today HobbyKing announced new price for this item Polyquest 4950mAh 5S 25C Lipoly (Version 2). Regular price was $159 so it is on sale for three times cheaper than ever.

This can be related to the low stock levels that HobbyKing is trying to clear out. By the way there is no information about this item not in the Flash Sale not in the Sale/Liquidation categories.

This type of sales without announcements and notifications happens on the regular basis. We would like to know if you are interested to see these sales on our web site. We could create a separate category for unexpected price drops. 

HobbyKing had detailed information about stock status available for a long time. For example how many items are available or how many are sold if there are zero in stock. It could give you an idea how big the line up was.

Unfortunately two persons (first & second) decided to show off their knowledge  on Twitter and disclosed this information to the public.  As a result HobbyKing is hiding this information and the numbers that are available aren't precise enough. For example: less than 50 in stock or up to minus 20.

We are currently working on the solution. 

Today we created a new group on RCSearch named «Free Item». This list will consist gifts from HobbyKing.

You will be able to see active gift, its regular price, required conditions, when this promo ends and the history of previous promotions. This will give you an idea about how often and for how long these promos are running.

You can also subscribe for notifications via e-mail or text messages about new promotions. After you activate notification option you won't miss the shot.

Your feedback is really appreciated.

While shopping for propellers or carbon tubes, rods etc. I observed additional packaging in my shopping cart for example (BOX-379g — Extra Length Cardboard Box and Packing). As per HobbyKing this package is added to guarantee you will receive your parcel with no damage. So while the item that requires additional package is in your shopping cart the package will remain in the cart too.

The only one thing I don't like is that additional packaging has additional weight. As a result the price for delivery will be automatically increased.
On the RCSearch merchandise description has also information about additional mandatory packaging if applicable and the total weight of the item including this additional packaging. Here you can see an example.



Please be aware that search result by the weight of the product will not consider the weight of the additional packaging. The purpose of this is that you might already have one "Extra Length Cardboard Box and Packing" in your shopping cart and just looking to fill the rest of the space with additional items. All the information about the packaging will be displayed beside the item and you make the final decision.

Please share all your concerns and suggestions.
