RE: whats up with bolink
Dont believe any of the rumors about Bolink. I called them and placed an order. Whatever Hobbytown USA heard and is saying isnt true. Bolink didnt go into detail (as you would expect with any company) about what is going on. They just said they got behind. So Bolink is still in business.

Steve at Bolink has had parts and kit probs for some time now. Every once in-awhile I can get parts in... but I see a bluemoon several times before this happens. If it's not one thing its another.... as far as going under..... not a clue.

RE: whats up with bolink
Jarc-RCU, I just updated my above post with some info I found out today. After I spoke with Bolink and placed my order I was too excited to even ask the price and shipping cost. LOL! UGH! Had to call back. I wasted alot of time yesterday and alot of calls to companies listening to Hobbytown USA's rumors. Almost every local shop is saying the same thing now,and that is only from Sunday to Tuesday.Spreads like wildfire. As soon as I called some local shops and said Bolink they burst out,"you know they arent in business anymore. [&:] The companies I should have listened to were Happy Hobby and Tower. They gave a more reasonable explaination. Well whatever happened I guess only the bolink employer(e)s will know. As for all I heard they just got behind. Happy they are still in business and making the classic tops.
