I have purchased from eRockets several times with no issues. My last order I was shorted decals and when I called about my missing decals I was told they were packed in my order. There was nothing there. I think they were packed in someone’s else’s order. I sent several emails and no reply. I’m still out my decals.
Allrockets Rocketarium kits I have emailed them about their shipping being economy shipping, what is that. I know first class or priority mail but what is economy. Dose that mean it gets delivered in the back of a pickup truck. I get no response from them either. Has anyone order from either company without issues. Thanks

AllRockets is a Canadian company and I have no experience with them. eRockets is in Dayton OH and I have done a ton of business with them. eRockets is first class and a boon to our hobby. I've emailed questions or comments to Randy Boadway, the owner of eRockets and usually gotten a response so maybe they are just really busy with the advent of spring and the upcoming rocket season.

eRockets is *VERY* legit. If he hasn't responded to you by Tuesday, you can join the Wright Stuff Rocketeers Open Build Night (via Zoom) on Tuesdays at 6-8:30pm EST at eRockets and talk to Randy directly.

eRockets are definitely legit, but screw ups happen.
I would call them and ask them to "make it right". 99% probability that they will. In 1% outcome, dispute the credit charge, and let us know.
Allrockets is a Canadian shop, and shipping across the US-CAN border is a major PITA. Which I prefer to avoid.
"Economy" shipping in Canada may, or may not, mean what you think it means. In global scheme of things, border crossing delays will negate any and all other shipping considerations.
BTW, if you like Rocketarium kits (I do too), consider ordering directly from them.
They sell not just the kits, but tons of useful rocketry supplies as well, and ship ridiculously fast out of upstate NY:
Rocketarium Model Rocket Kits, parts and launch supplies
Find model rockets for sale at the Rocketarium. Buy cool flying rocket kits and make us your model rocketry shop.

All Rockets is very legit. I've had nothing but good interactions with the owner.
Economy shipping is just ground or standard shipping.

ERockets are totally legit. Mistakes can happen, they usually rectify them. I had a Snipe Hunter Semroc kit that had a missing decal, they sent me one later. They may just be busy, or actually launching rockets themselves, so be patient, I would be confident that they will respond to you and make it right.

I just got off the phone with Randy. He said their office was closed a few days to get cought up with backlog. I was asking Randy about the Rocketaruim tank buster rocket kit and I see the kit has a BT20 mm tube which is also acting as the main BT the fins get glued on at the aft end. There is a aluminum retention motor mount 18mm and I’m not sure how that wound mount on the BT20 tube with the fins. I never did a friction fit and worried about the motor kicking out or getting stuck inside.
ERockets is Randy in Dayton. Yes they are a real company, I've ordered from him dozens of times and even visited there three times. It's an awesome place. I'm like a kid in a candy store when I go there.
I've ordered from erockets many times. They are a reliable company. They had a good presentation on the last NARCON.

eRockets is legit. I have ordered several times. I think only Sirius Rocketry ships faster.

Yes, AllRockets is very legitimate and a great company to work with. I personally have purchased thousands of dollars of rocketry items and supplies from them over the years. I have had great experiences with the owner and staff.
All rockets is great, ordered about $1000 worth of stuff a couple weeks ago for myself and 4 others doing L1 certs soon
Allrockets and Rocketarium are under the same parent company. Denau Hobbies.
I have ordered many times from erockets and Allrockets.
They are both legit.

Make sure you look inside of any loose body tubes or couplers that you received. Something small and light items may have been placed inside a tube.

I've ordered fro eRockets/Dayton many times. Only been shorted once. However, I've been sent several items over the ordered amount, I sent them back. I believe Randy is the owner of eRockets. He always makes the sale right. He even returned the postage for the returned items I sent him. Making a list of needs for future projects. Give them a try, I think you might like doing business with them.
