    I've ordered several things from Jan. i have received shipments w/ notes inside with items backordered but fortunately they have never been anything important. I just placed a small order with Kintec Thursday night and received shipping confirmation this am. Like OSE, Ill give them both 5 stars. And both always reply to any emails Ive sent in a timely manner. Sometimes, with any specialty place, one has to just keep the mentality that you are not the only one out there with questions. I run a small construction company and cant believe the amount of calls and emails I get in a 24hr period.. A lot more people seem to be spending on RC boats than remodels so even if it takes them a couple days to get back, I think theyre both doing great.

    So thank you to both Kintec and OSE.

      I made order 6th march (week ago), was thinking i will get any confirmation to my order after i pay, got nothing, then i started to worry, now found this thread... also no replies to my emails no address, no phone number, I hope those who have good experiece here are right, but i really want to know how long should i wait for shipment. Can someone who know this seller call him and ask for it in my name please?

      Regards
      Ernest

      Edit: Jan just contacted me, shipment tomorrow :) wow that was fast :)

        OSE and Kintec are the two fastest delivering FE suppliers I use that deliver to Canada without overblown shipping charges. According to Paypal I spent $14,000 last year, a couple of the well known guys that supply specialized products took a few months to ship, one took 6 months! It seems everyone can have occasional lapses in communication when they are busy.

          I shop almost exclusively thru Kintec & OSE with no issues

          Yeah occasionally I order from Tower Hobbies, Amazon or 1 of my eBay suppliers like Phil's hobby shop for bargain deals or sales, but I wouldn't fret over a week. If you ordered from Kintec, its all good .....

              Just my two cents. I have placed 12 orders from Kintec since Dec.1st. They are in Mass and I am in Florida. Every single order was at my door in 3 days and not a single missing part or back ordered item. Get email the following morning after order and tracking lets me know delivery day. Same with OSE as I've made about same amount of orders and always an email with tracking following the order and to my door in 3days. Love both these places. As both places have some items the other does not. I'm just happy to be able to order online and get it with in the same week. We all know ordering over seas can be several weeks to receive.

                I just placed an order after I read through all this for over $200. I know it will show up in a timely manner, under 10 says is fine and if it doesn't paypal is there to make sure i don't lose a thing. It's an ideal setup. If I was in a rush for parts I needed yesterday there are other options, places you can pick up the phone and call, pay for premium shipping and considerably more for your parts and get them in a guaranteed time frame (supposedly). Any email I have sent to kintec after a reasonable amount of time has past has been responded to. I don't imagine he will bother to take the time with hotheads though given how busy he is in the first place. He likely doesn't want them a customers either.
                I have fired a few customers over the years to their astonishment, ones spent a good deal of money with me, piece of mind is worth a lot sometimes!

I turn shafts and couplers out of raw stock. I try to confirm I got the orders but I also get behind fast when I can only push out a few orders every few days. So before I get flamed I thought I would step up and let you all know. Thanks for the business as you WILL get your parts but I also put order in line as I feel this is fair.
                  I have yet to run a wire drive from you on my Spartan, will eventually place that order! I am just confused on what the heck I need... WEll want! lol

                  I have never had a bad experience from Kintec, I actually use to prefer Kintec over OSE but that has changed due to my Paypal account being locked (under 18).... I always try and split orders!

                  5/2/14: Parts ordered from Jeff Wholt, order placed April 17th (Sunday) order shipped 5/2/14 (Friday). He even corrected my order because I may have selected the wrong coupler! Here is the tracking so you can see for yourself: USPS Tracking

                    no problems with kintec. also, if there were a delay, i'd take into consideration he's a one man band. but there have not been any delays in any event. he has more credibility with me than op.

                      Kintec only problems not saying parts r backordered, but shipping no problem. Wohltz is great on info and email responce, but web site needs to be more inviting & user friendly. They also just lagg on shipping, but quality of wire drives is worth the wait.

                        When inquiring about custom boat offering/options on Kintec's website, Jan responded to my initial email. But has yet to respond to my 2nd & 3rd follow-up emails, leading up to cost/purchase details. And this was over a week ago.

                        Communication is a required component in business transactions. And a prompt response is always desired between both parties. If that doesn't take place, it says to me that you don't care if we do business or not? Even if you can't deliver for whatever reason, just say so by communicating that to the other party. That would be more acceptable than not responding or communicating at all.

                          waiting on a slow seller can get aggravating sometimes.
                          what irks me more is being overcharged for shipping.
                          I just received a package the other day. it was a small bubble
                          mailer first class mail that weighed 2oz , I was charged $6.75
                          actual shipping would have been around $2.00 add .25 for the
                          envelope and .10 for the label give the guy a $1.00 for handling
                          and I paid double. that makes me think twice before placing an order.
