Pacific Coast Hobbies (PCH) (e-slotcar.com) continues to be the pinnacle of online mail order slot car parts shopping.

If you live hundreds of miles from a raceway like I do, this is the smartest choice.

Scott Salzberg runs the show like a well-oiled machine   :good:

This is just my personal opinion as a retail shopper, nothing more.

     I concur, Pablo  :excl:  

                                                                                                                                                               :good:

     Additionally, in conversation he is (to say the least) a colorful character, and he pulls no punches;  In my humble opinion and from my firsthand experience, a real "straight-shooter".  Scott provides excellent customer service and (if it's in stock) shipping "at the speed of light"   :excl:

Yeah I have excellent fast service from them too. The only constructive criticism is very little detail about product on their website. Otherwise :-)

10-4 on Scott.  He's one of the few I deal with.  I may not be his best customer, but you'd never know it by how he does biz.

He always gets stuff to me really fast and that's not always the case going from west to east.

I've bought from Scott @PCH for years now, always has great customer service. He, Mike Swiss and Rick Bennardo have been the most consistent out-of-state providers that I gladly purchase from

Scott gave advice for our home raceway we call the Dungeon, even gave us some discounts to get us started. We still race one of the classes he helped with, The JK indy.

 I needed some stuff for the last Sano and didn't have much time left. My order arrived with plenty of time to spare.

I agree- a great place to shop if your local track is out of stock.


That's thirty minutes away. I'll be there in ten.

You are late to the PCH party,I've been doing business with Scott for years now. He has a great inventory and if not in stock he gets it to you quickly.
