Hi all,

I source a lot of parts from China (Vitavon, Adu, GPM, etc.), but I also love the quality of some products from the USA, namely M2C.

The majority of the time, I source these products directly, but sometimes it's easier and quicker to pick up small items directly from my local hobby store.

This is now becoming a problem as some store owners push back on American-made products in a revolt against the current administration's tariff policies on foreign countries.

This could hurt companies like M2C and others through no fault of their own.

Is anyone else experiencing this trend in their own country?,,lol,Canadians probably don't need to reply,i already see what youve done to americian wiskey imports.

M2c don’t really make much for corally so not an issue for me. For Other parts that other brands you mentioned don’t make id use Erik van Ravenstein he makes most parts for corally if need anything just pm on him Facebook he’s reasonably priced & quality work.
 
What's the general cost of Erik parts?
These are prices when I ordered parts for my Kronos back in 2024 so can’t say they be the same now but wouldn’t think they’d have changed much if not same price now. Titanium Ackerman set was 48€ prices in euros he from the Netherlands. I actually going to message him later about a chassis so I’ll hopefully have a price on how much he does them for too I’ll let you know.

As always @Nelson.81 thank you for the info! Means alot! His parts look so official in comparison to adu m2c. I've always favored handmade opposed to mass produced products
