120mph!! AMAZING :lol: Checkout that shipping rate, what a steal!

Hilarious!  to bad some new guy to the hobby or a complete idiot will probably buy it...--Josh

"I was doing well over 120mph when a blow out caused me to crash." LOL

Homeboy was smokin crack when he listed that ?
Pics dont even show much let alone the damage that accured during his 120mph wreck.

Aside from the extraneous MPH claim, and him saying the MMM will run fine on 2s and NiMh packs, it not all that bad of a deal. $225 aint bad for all that stuff.

There is a pretty well bent front CVD in one of the pics... :lol:

Maybe not a bad deal but I refuse to do business with someone who is such an obvious liar.

I wonder if he would accept local pickup? :rofl:

I sent him a question asking about local pick up. We shall see if he responds before time runs out.

Where is he lying? That 120mph is probably scale mph. :wink:

Or maybe he was driving in the car, and someone slammed into the RC from the back? o.o
Just sayin'

Other than that, it's a pretty hilarious listing :lol:

He answered me and said for 150 he would end early and do local pick up. Seems a good deal to me. Anyone near Hanover?

150 is a great deal ?

An MMM, Motor, and the vehicle for 150 cash and carry seems a pretty good deal to me.

That almost sounds too good to be true, to be honest.
Unless he really needs the dough...

MMM on 2s is fine - Runs my truggy at 20mph for kiddie mode...

2s on the MMM might run into BEC drop-out, especially if using a high powered servo. Switching BECs typically like 1.5-2v of voltage headroom for proper operation. But, in a kiddie truck, it should be fine since current draw (and voltage sag) is low.

It didnt sell, so he relisted them for an even higher shipping cost! He even states in the auction he has the shipping so high to circumvent Ebays fees. $200 shipping, what a steal!

Wow, he is soon to be in trouble with ebay.

Check out this guys other listings ? He's determined to sell his items and not get charged final value fees, even has a auction page for all RC auctions being sold in a lot starting bid .99 w/450.00 for shipping .

Ive already reported them, if I gotta pay the fees, so does he. I think its pretty sorry to try and slip a $200 shipping charge by somebody. Hes damn lucky I dont live in PA, I woulda bought them all and done local pickup :D

He could deny local PU if he wished unless stated on the page.

You can only enable Local Pickup, if he wants to deny it, he has to state so in the listing.

I also reported him, usually not the rat, but I think it's pretty crazy that he's trying to go past the fees.
I get killed on the fees, and so should he.

Looks like all of his listings have been removed. 0-o

Actually, I don't think so. I placed a $0.99 bid (figured the buggy and MMM combo was worth $200.99). Shortly after that, I got a message with his phone# and saying that if I got all his R/C stuff for $440, he'd end the auction early. After I saw the auction ended, I called him and he said some guy in NM took him up on his offer, so he ended the auction early.

Interesting.....
