Default Goodbye from JE Models...
To our loyal customers and model enthusiasts,

We are saddened to announce that JE Models will be closing its doors (virtually and physically) for good at the end of this year.

After an amazing 8 years helping redefine the RC model industry, the time has come for the team to explore other opportunities.

The great news for you guys is that everything in our warehouse must go by 31st December 2013 so keep an eye on our website for some unbeatable deals!

Don't worry, no suppliers or customers will be hurt in the closing down process.

We would like to thank all of you for your support and friendship over the last 8 years.

If you have any queries, please contact us on sales@jemodels.com

Wishing you all the best for the future,

The team @ JE Models.

Thanks for the messages up to now guys, it means a lot.

Regarding pre-orders, any one that has pre-ordered kits with us will have those orders fulfilled. RC10 Classic's are due within a week so we're told and they will all be shipped out upon their delivery. Same goes for other models.

Such a shame, Great supplier and certainly one of the best web shops to navigate.

You'll be missed by many.

Very sad day.. Unfortunatley an indication of how tough it is to make a profit selling RC stuff.
JE have been a great customer of SMD over the years and we wish our friends there all the best for the future.

Sorry, the website has just been bombarded with traffic and is temporarily down. We're currently onto our "please wait a moment why we look into this" web hosts to resolve this for you ASAP.
