Default total $ spent at tower!

today I was browsing around tower and I saw a place where I could look at order history. well it showed how much money I have spent scence I have had a customer # and it scared me. I have been in the hobby for about 6 months roughly and have spend well over 700 $ not including whole cars or trucks. kinda scared me scence I dont have verry much to show for it.

Spent $900 just through Tower since Dec 20th. Plus there's a few things through Ebay, the LHS where I bought my Savage SS and the other onliner stores too. I figure I'm closing in on about $2,500 and I just got into this hobby in December.

I just spent $377.51. I ordered the new jato and some stuff to get it going...fuel, glow plugs, etc.
Now it just needs to hurry up and get here... still back ordered...
This will be my first order with tower and my first nitro truck.

if anyone is ordering on there soon use the ad # 011T5 and then when it asks you for the "other" ad #(the one on the back of the catalog) use 02228. it saves you 20 bucks off of an order of $50 or more, I used it on sunday to order some new wheels and tires as well as a new duratrax kwik-pit super start. it brought my total price from 98.74 to 78.74 which basically just pays for the shipping to canada (17.99)

I try and stay away from that screen - Every time I look at it I get very frightened at what I have spent.

ya I decided not to visit that page any more. scares me to think that I could spend that much $.

If you could would any of you trade all/any of your rc or rc related items for that $, and never be able to have rc as a hobby. would you?

My answer is NO WAY.

Since the first of this year I have spent around $1,300. This is including $413 for the Savage 4.6 SS kit. This is not including from other places I have ordered just Tower.
