Cessna 182
To Whomever will listen,
After several warnings from friends and online chatrooms...I still felt I needed to give Banana Hobby.com a chance at selling me a quality airplane. I should have listened to the groundswell of complaints against them.
I bought a Cessna 182 N9258 radio controlled airplane. This plane was suppose to be "ready to fly" but the receiver (which had no atena to it)...was just put inside the plane and wasn't even connected. The plane had a broken wheel also and had broken and non-working receiver and transmitter. I bought a new receiver and finally got it to lift off to only crash within seconds because the plane was not balanced. It did not have any instructions on balancing or binding the receiver to the transmitter. I had to have a friend help me do that since I could not get any help from Banana Hobby.com's tech support.
Please do something about this "scam" company.
Sincerely & Respectfully,
Paul Hicks

R/C Airplane
Banana Hobby is the worst company I have ever had to deal with. The products are garbage and the customer service sucks. I ordered a plane put it together and it was defective. They ignored my service request and now they are saying I should have contacted them in a different manner. The plane was put together so therefore I cannot send it back and its my fault its a piece of junk. Do not buy from them. It is all Chinese crap. No consideration for customer at all. BBB gives them an F.

SCAM, SCAM, SCAM
<<<<< BANANA HOBBY IS NOTHING BUT SCAM >>>>>
Two months ago I made a mistake and bought a F4E plane from these guys, the charger was one of this chipos… so I wanted to ask some question, at first I tried to call never could!, then I tried sending then an email, never got a reply. Then I sent them an email every other day, did not work. I decided to send a fax, NO luck. Make long story short since then I have been sending them sucker an email and fax every day!!!... you think someone will get back to me, right?... WRONG! NO ONE DID. I even sent several email to the Management and that guy PETER, NO LUCK!?
So I decided to check on line (something which I should have done before my mistake) I found what I was afraid of. All these complain and scams, I think someone should REPORT them.
This company (if you can call it a company!) is one of the worst on this earth and on line, here is why:
1- NO Customer Service at all
2- Very Unprofessional Staff
3- NO Manager or one whom does not even know what the word “Manager” MEANS!
4- So management SUCKS
5- Their phone lines (2) are 24/7 busy!!!(indication of volume of their problem)
6- They never ever reply to emails, fax or phone calls
7- That Peter guy and entire company IS A JOKE
8- Only three words can describe them “SCAM, SCAM, SCAM”
DO NOT TRUST OR BUY FROM THESE GUYS, YOU’LL GET RIPPED-OFF. AND PLEASE MAKE THIS KNOWN ON TWITTERS, BLOGS AND EMAILS.

Poor service, stole money
The companies employees all lie non stop. I can not count how many times they lied to me and in open forums no less. They took my money and never sent my parts. I filed a dispute and they said because I did that not only will I never get my part but I will also not get a refund. Their company head (Pete) is completly full of crap and will gladly lie to you any chance he gets. If you are not spending over $1000 or if you are not famous they will treat you like crap.
STAY AWAY FROM BANANA HOBBY!!

Where do I start...
BEWARE!! DO NOT ORDER FROM THIS COMPANY!!!
A rating of 1 is too high for this merchant. I purchased 2 helicopters for which there was 100% guaranteed satisfaction. The helicopters arrived almost a month after I purchased them for Christmas, were of very poor quality, and they didn’t fly. I was unable to send them back because the company required a Return Merchant Authorization number (RMA#) - however weeks of constant emails and telephone messages went unanswered. When someone finally did reply, they claimed that the return period had expired and they would not accept the items for refund or exchange. Their 100% guarantee police is a joke and everything on their website is falsely advertised. Yahoo would be wise to sever it's relationship with this fly by night operation.

Never received goods
Theustomer service at this company is unbeleivabl poor. I ordered an rc boat and extra battery. Total cost of $108. After a week of tracking the purchase from UPS, I emailed Hobby to ask why the tracking status didn't move from "Manifest pickup". Their attitude was, "we shipped it, nothing we can do, contact UPS. ". So I contacted UPS and they told me to have Banana Hobby contact them. Emailed BH, no reply. Have tried to contact them several times with no reply. So I'm out of $108.00 and have nothing. Their two emails said essentially, "we sent it, you're own your own". Not, "I'm sorry, we'll try to find it", "We have the receipt that we sent it", nothing. I hope this complaint cost them more than the $108.00 they stole from me. Don't use this company!!!

Poor Service
On October 2008 I purchased two R/C Helicopters from BananaHobby.com.
During the initial purchasing phase they were quick to respond to inquiries. Now that I have the helicopters I need to purchase replacement parts for one that happens to be a newer model for 2008, but cannot get any response from Banana Hobby. On the purchase description it does list that "all" replacement parts are available which led me to believe that common parts like replacement rotor blades would be easy to get. They are inexpensive parts, but I cannot locate a seller in the U.S. and Banana Hobby will not help.
I have tried several emails, and the phone numbers listed ring and ring with no answer. Once the business hours are into effect, the phone is placed off the hook and rings busy.
I am writing this to warn other shoppers that sometimes, a good price is no replacement for "good service".
