Question 1

Do you sell replacement differential gears for Maverick RC cars, and are they available in metal?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we sell replacement differential gears for Maverick models. Metal replacement options are available (such as the MV28096). These parts may need to be ordered in and aren't always in stock, but we can arrange this for you. Pricing and availability vary, so it's best to contact us with your specific model number for a quote and timeframe.

Question 2

What happens if an item in my order is out of stock?

Accepted Answer

If an item in your order is out of stock, we'll contact you to offer options. You can either switch to a similar alternative item at the same price, wait for us to restock it from our supplier (which may take a couple of working days), or we can refund that item and send the rest of your order straight away.

Question 3

How long will it take for my order to arrive if items are currently out of stock?

Accepted Answer

If items in your order are out of stock, delivery times can extend significantly—typically an additional 3-4 weeks depending on international shipments from suppliers like the USA. We'll keep you updated on stock arrival. If the wait is too long, we're happy to offer a full refund so you're not left waiting.

If an item in my order is out of stock, can HobbyCity send the rest of my order now and the missing item later without extra shipping?
