Most if not all businesses in the UK that retail RC products are owned and run by enthusiasts at the end of the day.

From my perspective any profits I make go towards putting fuel in the van to get to meetings and race fees, and towards my rent/rates/utilities/insurances etc. Anything I have left over goes towards our mortgage and household bills which would leave me enough for a pint and a packet of crisps - And with that said I'm more than a happy chap
Hi mike, didn't see you with crisps on Sunday, but you've not sent me that invoice yet, so now I feel bad
Let me know what I owe for those wheels on sunday
