at $350 a new in box ACME prop is a good deal. I don't know how long Nettle has had that deal, but i did not see it when I purchased mine online. I wouldnt risk it over $9 either, so when you posted Nettles price I dropped to $325. Sorry for trying to make sure it was a good deal

Prior to your edit it was $350 plus shipping. As a buyer why risk it to possibly save $9. I simply posted a link with a pretty good coupon.

I'm a newbie here, Guess I'll think twice before before posting anything here. Wow. Thanks for the welcome. The prop is new never installed. Don't make it out like I was trying to rip someone off. $325 for a prop is a reasonable price for a brand new in box ACME prop. I am returning it to the retailer for a full refund minus my shipping. I was losing money to sell at 325 but thought I would pass on a deal to Correctcraftfan members as I am new. Guess not.
If you plan on damaging your prop Nettle props has a good deal. |

$359+$22(shipping)=$381 for the new one $44(round trip shipping)+$195 for repair=$239-$50(coupon)=$189 for a fresh repair Local repair: $250-$280 (quotes vary within same shop) which in turn ships it 100 miles away to be repaired+I have to drive 60 miles round trip through town. Second time in a week somebody tried selling a prop for what you could order one new. Shop the Internet. |

So if you want to really do the math. How much shipping will you pay to send your prop into Nettle for the prop repair vs a local prop shop?
