In a proactive effort to build our business we have decided to ultimately close our Ebay store. After 7 years on Ebay it has been an OK run. There definitely have been good months and bad months, but now I see our business really being impacted by Ebay's "new direction".
Our over 3000+ customer feedback will go away, but I hope our supporters will follow us. I have decided to completely revamp our business websites. Once the new website is fully functioning our transition process will begin. All current business will continue as usual and nothing will impact our customer's orders.The Ebay store will close or offer limited products. Our www.rctunerdirect.com and www.fastxmods.com sites will continue for now because they do not cost us money, and E-Crater has been good to us.
Our new website will be HiPowerRC.com. The name was chosen because of our quality battery packs that have made us successful. Both EP and ACE brand battery packs will be sold as well as select Redcat Racing RC vehicles. We no longer feel that affiliation with Ebay is beneficial to our business model or image. We think the Ebay brand is now a "negative" and do not wish to represent our quality products on the site. With plenty of cheap battery packs littering the Ebay playing field sold by questionable outfits, we would rather differentiate ourselves from the pack by having a stand alone website owned by us.
Our value pricing will continue as will our superb customer service. We will also start a new blog representing our new business. The blog will be www.HiPowerRC.blogspot.com .
We feel this is not "giving up" but rather a new direction that will both benefit us as a business and our customers at the same time. We hope that those reading this post will become customers and follow us through this difficult and exciting journey.
Thank you and Best Regards,
Mike Mizzi-owner HiPowerRC.com
We are an innovative RC car and truck blog and e-commerce portal.

Please support our advertisers so that we can continue to be on the map - providing RC reviews, projects, and news!
DiyMiniTuner.com dates back to 2003 when established as Ebay Store "DiyMiniTuner" which catered to the Do It Yourself Mini Tuner...i.e. RC enthusiasts who modified their Xmods and Mini-Z RC cars. We were a "kitchen table" business modifying PCB's with upgraded fets, tweaking motors, and building lithium ion battery mods....Now Mike Mizzi writes articles and still dabbles with RC online sales and creative RC Car projects.
