Dragon Cares

The darling wife while dusting broke the props to Glamorous Glennis. I contacted DC and have a replacement enroute, but for a $5.00 shipping fee. This is the first time I've had to pay for a replacement. I'm guessing/hoping its due to the particular model being OOP. Then again, they may be sending me one from the "Nookie Bookie" line. Still I cannot complain.

I've received a couple of parts and never been charged -- and always kind of marvelled at that... I expected to at least pay S&H but was never asked. I guess the party's over, but at least they were responsive to your dilemma...

Re: Dragon Cares

I asked for a replacement F4U antenna a few months ago, and paid for S&H. I guess I can't really complain, but it's not outstanding customer service.

Re: Dragon Cares

$5.00 seems a little steep to me. For the love of God, does everything have to go FEDEX?


USPS bubble envelope would be about $.80

Re: Dragon Cares

Shawn,

Please post how you contacted Dragon Cares so that the rest of us might benefit from the inroads you have forged into the hitherto (to me) opaque Dragon Customer Service system.



Thanks in advance!

Thumbs up Re: Dragon Cares

In the past I tried getting a Bf109G prop and Fw190D-9 cannon from Dragon. Contacted them more than once. Still no response.

Re: Dragon Cares

My experience with Draggin "Care" was nothing short of terrible. But it sounds as if the US-based people are more efficient. It's a pity those of us not in North America still have to deal with the crowd in Hong Kong .
