        For those that purchased the new E8. Did your payment options include only Paypal or bank transfer?

          On the Toucan website it would only allow me to pay with Paypal.

            Paypal is a good way to protect your privacy information such as the credit card.

                Nice to see it. I wish I could understand Chinese, especially at the end of the video where three tanks were compared.
                The more screws it takes to reassemble a tank, the more likely it is you left something out!

                  Did DKLMRC.com resume shipping to US yet?

                    From his website...

                    September 2025


                    As Hong Kong Post has not resumed shipments to the US, we kindly ask US customers interested in placing an order to contact us directly. We can arrange shipping via UPS. I appreciate your understanding!​

                      No, but DKLMRC does ship to Rich Johnson's company (RichJohnsonModels N Stuff). Rich has been acting as a middleman for many of us. If there is something you want from DKLM Rich can get it for you. Of course there is a fee for him doing the ordering & handling the purchase which is fair given Rich takes all the risk on rapidly changing importation challenges.

                      I have several item Rich ordered for me coming in on his next DKLMRC shipment.

                        When I ordered DKLM in the past before the DJT tariff hit, they used Hong Kong Post for shipping. The shipping cost was usually cheaper than USPS domestic shipping. The cost of UPS, DHL are too expensive to be practical.

                        I was able to ship the Tongde metal gearbox for $12 by DKLM. Last time I asked them, the shipping by DHL is more than the gearbox itself. It is not just the cost, DKLM has some 1/16 scale RC tank parts that is either not available or at much higher cost elsewhere. I miss DKLM.

                          Is the third tank a Tamiya?

                              Can you share how much you paid for the tank and how much for shipping (to where)?

                                I have not bought one, yet. There is a link in this thread from last/this week on the cost per model.

                                  DKLM model and parts price are always very good. It is the shipping problem. See Post 427. I wonder what shipping method that Rich Johnson uses when ordering from DKLM.
