Default Re: Payment Plans for RC Construction Equipment?

I think it would be pretty difficult to find a manufacturer or fellow modeler willing to finance the purchase of a piece of RC equipment.

At first when I read this the frugal side of my brain said who in their right mind would want to go into debt to buy a glorified toy, as expensive and complicated as it may be. But then I thought about it a little more and realized no one criticizes people for financing campers, fishing boats, ATV's or motorcycles. These things are just grown up toys as well. I bet that the residual value of a piece of Scale Art, Fumotec, Wedico etc.. equipment is far better than that of any boat, RV or ATV.

That being said, I agree with Espeefan that one of those 0% introductory offers on a credit card would be the most likely option, but make darn sure you pay it off in time or else all that accruing interest will make that new excavator a whole lot more expensive.
