lol... I just submitted a Best Offer of $132.50 plus his $20 shipping. I told him that this was the price being offerd at RC-monster.com
|
lol. I felt like writing him a message too but I though I had better not. He would probably report me or something.
|
what a f*ing moron...
|
That guy has to be on some strong :drunk:. He even forgot to take the $199 price out :rofl:.

I hope nobody pays more than the going rate for any of these Ebay/RcTech listings.
Legitimate shops have them now and more are coming. I do the same with the people trying to sell NIB Wii systems... I offer them $250 + ship. So far nobody has taken me up on it, LOL!!!! |
What's funny, is that Wii's are constantly in stock at stores now. They may sell out, but new stock arrives weekly.

his name is Steve Ludwig from Ormond Beach, Florida (pictured on the invoice). Anyone know him? We should all send him letters.
|

|

Questions from other members Question & Answer Answered On Q: Do you realize that the retail price for this is $200? May-10-08 A: Yes I do. Do you realize that the preorder, the first run and the second run are already sold out. Next expected delivery date is in july. Ask seller a question |
Second run is not sold out and it won't be July... this guy is full of @#$!
|
Maybe this idiot will get the point when it doesn't sell. The funny thing is that he might be able to get 200 for it if he sells it quickly, but within a few weeks he will be lucky to get the retail of 170 for it and most likely will have to settle for less.
|
well, its worth a try aint it? like he gets it probably for 170 or less, then tries to sell it for more. $500 is EXTREME though. thats how much the one which supposedly got given out on april fools day would have gone for, with no one knowing the final release date.
but i think $300 would have been enough for someone to pay it, but not $500 + postage! (hope his markups arent just in the BIN, its $50 postage lololol) |
Only a few yours to go on it and it has had 13 offers
|
$375 was the winning bid....

That's really sad what that guy spent on it. By the time he gets it, I should have both of mine that I paid $310 shipped for.
|
Just goes to show you there's plenty of DAs out there. This kinds of seller depend on them and some apparently do well.
|
Starting to get tempted to put mine up
|
Hmmm, I do have a few engineering units laying around somewhere....
|
wow, I have one on the way and no more 8th scale. wonder what I could get for it. :)
seriously I think the e-revo will be calling me and it will go in there. However if someone wanted to pay a crazy price (over retail) its all t theirs. |
I've just send it a message, and i'am sure that it'll not appreciated it:whistle:

The least of that is still about $100 more than what we paid at RC-M. Go Mike!
|
What a joke. I miss my MMM already though. Funny thing is there will be hobby stores selling the MMM for $450 in Australia when they finally do make it into stores.
|
I wish I got mine already. Got to wait a couple of more weeks I guess, because I got in the second pre-order sale :oops:
|
Friend of mine got his preordered from castle, but he doesn't have a truck to run it in yet. I do. :) Just soldered it up, and dropped it in. FYI, you are going to need a BIG iron (60w min, I used 80w) to make up those 6.5mm bullets.
So this is in the flm emaxx pictured in my avy. Geared 19/66 with 6S A123. Ran pretty good, but the pack was brand new (1st run since I assembled) so it dumped quick. Put it back on the charger, geared up to 22/66. Cranked way down on the RRP slipper and hit it. Man, does this thing cook. Gearing estimate is 40+. The 6S1P pack was fine, no problems at all. I don't really see a need for 2P unless you need the runtime. Freakin amazing torque. Whips the wheels up with no problem. Temps after running: motor 160, esc 109, batts 120. A few more runs to wake up the pack should be good. Can't wait to get out to the bash spot with this. Actually, can't wait to drop this in my Hyper 7! |
I've got a HB LSP-R (I bought the one that was being run on 12S at Track 21) waiting for my MMM, also my Rustler will get some Monster time on 5S to see if I can break 90mph.
