Oh yeah, I heard about the West US warehouse. Normally I have ordered from the NY warehouse in the past when I can. Interesting that you managed to get stuff that fast; the last time I ordered from them a few months ago it took 15 days.

I've ordered batteries, motor controllers, motors, and battery chargers from them. I've had successes and failures with ESCs, motors are usually decent quality (but don't take abuse well), and chargers are 50/50. The cheaper chargers they sell are not worth it.

My advice is to go to a more reputable store, but if you want to take the chance HK is fine. If you have any RC buffs in your area then consulting them can help.
