1st class service died at Tower Hobbies I’ve used Tower/Horizon since the 80s they used to have thirst customer service in the business. Sadly it’s no longer true! I don’t call much anymore but after 2 years I have a lost shipment and I find out Tower/Horizon no longer offer a voice line for anything! As long as you never need support you’re ok. But everyone will need support at some time …,Avoid Tower/Horizon there are other RC Hobby stores that still answer and support their products! I’m not advertising so look it up and enjoy peace of mind knowing your products and money will be well spent and CUSTOMER SERVICE AVAILABLE

Horrible customer service that lies Horrible customer service that lies, and tries to just run around in circles. Payed for priority shipping, usps said 4 days delivery time after item shipped (priority is 1-3) ordered elsewhere same day and products will be here sooner with the same priority shipping from further away! Oh and the website looks like something out of the late 90s

Ordered $500 worth of stuff and… Ordered $500 worth of stuff and qualified for free shipping, “sweet!” I thought. 3 days after ordering I received a Fed Ex tracking number via email. A week passes and the stated deliver by date comes and goes. Check Fed Ex tracking number again, now there is a nice message that USPS will be delivering my order. It still isn’t here two weeks after initial order date. Hell I ordered some hop ups through RC Mart the same day as I made my Tower Hobby order and that arrived 5 days later, from China!! First and last order from TH, hopefully my kids present makes it here before her birthday. Update: package arrived day before my kids B-day so I’m going to add another star, everything was nicely packed in the box. I would order again but not something that I need sooner than later. I’m not expecting overnight shipping but a reasonable expectation in this day and age is to have the box at your door within a week of paying for it.

Terrible customer service Terrible customer service, they lie, they are chronically our of stock on many items. I had an item on pre-order for 6 months and when it got released my order was never fulfilled even when I got subsequent messages saying the item was in stock and I should order now. I contacted their support who lied to me assuring they were going to fulfill the order and the warehouse was processing the shipment. Then a few days later I was told via email to cancel and re-order if I wanted it now that it's again on back order again.

Lure you in with Coupons & Rebates you can't use I purchased a very larger order (Slash Ultimate w/many accesories) expected to get at least $40 e-cash to spend. Only to find out that my $40 e-cash expired in 5 days from my order, it expired before my order was delivered/even shipped! RC is a big time hobby, and requires constant work/parts. I will never go back to Tower Hobbies regardless of pricing, discounts, coupons, rebates.
