$510 For What!!!???
 

I dont get it MMM combo $300, that means the motor plate, pinion and cover are $210. What is going on?

Maybe it's because the motor is black instead of green. I don't get that combo either, it must be some kind of mistake. The MMM, a pinion, the motor plate and cover but no motor mount. And they write ''Tower's low price'' :lol:

It's weird, it kinda looks like Tower is starting to part out kits like many do on ebay, but they're doin' it wrong :lol:

Damn, capitalist bastards!.. :lol:

Mistercrash, your post reminded me of this:

You're doing it wrong!

FYI just Google the phrase, there are some good ones! :mdr:

And better yet, somebody on TRX actually bought one!! :surprised: He didn't even know cheaper combos existed! :rofl:

Amateur!

I know...it must be the esc mount pushing the price up!

There you go! It must of been hand made! :rofl:

I noticed yesterday that tower is SUPER over priced on some if not all parts. Ex: Towers price on savage flux: $614. TCS price: $575. And alum. big bores are $90 on tower, and $65 on TCS.

Yep its called "supply and demand"

Yes, but with the super saver discount towers price is $614 - $60 = $554 which is pretty good and shipping would be free.

Yes, tower does have good deals often. I got $150 off mine but I paid $40 shipping to canada.

I already saw that one. But before the $510 there was a mistake on exactly that combo, it was for $110/130/150! (Don't remember the exact amount, but it was cheap) Someone here in the Netherlands bought it for $110/130/150, he didn't get it yet, but it would be a killer deal if he gets the ESC AND motor...

Another case of "Please tell me no one actually bought this." It must be a good deal though, since it's a huge discount off of the regular price of $1200. You can save almost $350!!!!!

titanium no less!:yes:

I really wanna meet the guy or kid who bought the $510 for that combo..

I would like to meet the SOB's at tower that set that price.

That's a hefty dumbass tax.

Why? It's not up to them to tell someone they're stupid for paying that price. If someone is dumb enough to pay that price, shame on them for not being more educated.

Yes, but it is dishonest business practices. I would expect more from a reputable dealer.

Dishonest? Hardly. It's up to them to sell at whatever price they choose to set on the product. Besides, show me another online retailer that stocks that exact same system (Traxxas P/N 3395). My searches turned up Tower and Ominmodels as the only retailers selling it.

YEah I think its more to do with it being the Traxxas branded version rather than tower being rip off merchants. The same for all the HPI castle stuff.. eg the hpi castle link $35 compared to $22 for the castle version http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...CH=castle+link

I mean, $50-75, extra, okay, that works.
But over $200? That's outrageous..
