ESK8SUPPLY (DIY parts store with fast worldwide shipping) direct drive, 6.1 es controller, batteries, carbon fibre deck etc (updated: 12th Dec)

Update 10/10/19
We have been talking through with our shipping company in China to prepay taxes for our customers in Europe since this is what the community wants. Now we are happy to announce that, ** tax is included for Europe customers**, it may increase the delivery time by 2 days. I hope people in the UK and EU are happy with the change :smile:

Haha, we were thrown into the deep-pit straight away. The community did help us quite a lot with their feedbacks to be fair. :smiley:

You’ve handled this well Nathan and it looks like you’re making good choices.

As it stands I would probably recommend your site to new builders, prices are alright as long as the quality holds up.

Talk to me about this dual controller then. Do you have more images of the remote? I’ve found the source but still think you or price is decent, do you plan to hold a little UK stock to deal with returns? And on that vein what have the delivery times been like so far into the eu from the supplier?

Dropshipping is a valid and well used method for businesses to crack the market without holding huge amounts of stock, I have no issues with it personally, especially now that the taxes are not a concern.

We just need to see your parts out in the wild now on real builds and being tested out by experienced builders, any plans to make that happen?

Wow! Loving the positive comments :smiley:
I can post some more photos of the remote. And yes, we are planning to hold stocks in the future for quicker delivery time (1 week is quite good currently).

It is funny that you said this, we are going to sell 5 controllers for $100 for the community to test and write about us. I am actually writing the post as of this moment.

I’d suggest keeping that off your site and having a private chat with 5 specific members
ie: @longhairedboy @BillGordon @DerelictRobot @mmaner @b264 @Dareno @deckoz
To me, these are builders that I follow every move they make and i have good esteem for their opinions

@BillGordon
Are you saying I have no esteem of your opinion?

Bill reminds me of my neighbours dad. He’s a cunt.

You’re just mad because they’re both giving it to your mum

Why? I also want to open the option to other builders as well, someone who can finish their build relatively soon :smiley:

@Esk8supply I understand that you want reviews(whether good or bad) in exchange for those discounts :slight_smile: these are people who move, build and ride very quickly (atleast compared to me). I dont think it would be beneficial to you to allow anyone to buy those “beta” units. What if I buy one of them but can’t build anything for another 6-8 months? The builders I named also have enough experience to know what to look for in your esc. I dont. But if anyone can buy, you might get stuck with five like me…shivering at the thought of five like me :rofl:

No, I’m saying I haven’t earned the right to have my name listed next to builders like these guys. Maybe one day, but not right now.

Haha, that is a valid point! But they might not want a thumb wheel remote though. I will have a think :smile:

Of course, you can disclose your full opinion still, we are not trying to buy a good review with the discount. Just to simply get some traction going :+1:

I dont believe paying something at a discounted price should alter what you think of the product? You make very good builds and strong threads. I put you in my list only because you are one of the people I would carefully read the review from.

I love free parts lol. And I don’t feel obligated to give positive reviews if the free stuff sucks lol
But I would tell the vender first before the community to see if they can fix the issues.

No, this is a good point. I have personally screwed Mike over by throwing way too much gear at him, and I’m a bit pissed at myself for it.

Good way to go at it. Btw these aren’t freebies. They would still be 100$ so 50%off. From the eyes of a vendor, I would value who gets those 5 first units as they are the ones to be able to make me improve further :slight_smile:
