I dont know many companies that get the Hype going as well as Team Durango and in a way JQ Products. Both companies put alot of effort into advertising and building up the hype of there products. Which fair play to them works wonders! I agree TD seem to release info and then it can seem along time till the product hits the shelves.-But the wait is worth it IMHO
I think its not fair to assume-they (just did not make enough kits). The cars are super popular and I would hate to think about how many kits have been brought so far across the globe..

Yeah but when I local shop gets orders and places an order with them for 10 and are told they'll get 6 and then only 2 arrive it looks bad for the shop as they've let 8 customers down who are waiting.

I appreciate demand must is high but it just seems really poor on there part, they've been doing this a while now added to their ability to get everyone hyped up they must realise how many they need to release.

It would be better for them to term every kit as a limited edition...

Still utter nonsense Phil, you totally overlooked recent history in your attempt to look like you know what you're talking about. Recent announcements have been followed by cars in shops weeks afterwards, but that doesn't make you look clever so we'll just ignore that fact huh

What I'd certainly agree with is there's not enough cars to go around! I got my DEX210 (officially announced a little over 2 months before it was in the shops, btw) by luck as someone didn't pay for theirs and I managed to snag it.

We were laughing at this thread today at racing.

The sheer qty of 210's & 410's running at Chadderton today is a visual on why they are in short supply. As demand is outstripping supply surely that must show it's a good product and worth waiting for.

The next thing some of you muppets will be complaining about is that you can't buy your kit in ASDA.

Now you mention it, that is a shame... I quite like adding things to the shopping trolley in a stealth manner, undetected until it gets put through the checkout..

Any chance some of you guys could channel your efforts in to finding a DESC410r set-up for carpet (see the appropriate sc setup section for my post).. Instead of bickering over things you have no influence on?

I'd really appreciate it.

seems like the two posts above yours also agree with me

fair play its on its way now, but why announce something a year ago that was clearly still in prototype stage?

Teaser.. Make people aware its in the Pipeline-So they hold off getting another brand's car.... so many things...

I prefer TD's method of not releasing products until there 100% ready, Which some brands don't do to the same level. And 90% of people that have tried or run a TD product love it.. So I would prefer to wait an extra 2 months than get a product thats.. chassis is not right or something..

The thread is about the DEX410V3, it was announced a couple of weeks before it was in the shops - then sold out almost immediately. Please stop talking bollocks.

Did PG not announce the V3 himself, many months before it was in the shops?

Probably didnt help you put an angry smiley on the thread title. It instantly makes people think your angry about the product?

Stu, it would be too easy to have pointed out that the HYPE that PG referred to was actually due to his very own actions, and not actually any press release from TD - but that would make him look like a complete and utter idiot.

Sorry boss, I did not realise that I was making one of your valuable forum users look like a total tool, if you want to remove my post then I'll not be offended.
