How much is it worth?
 
I just want to know what it's worth, a really rough idea would be great, I've put thousands into it and hope to get thousands back, lol, I know the Lightning chassis is very rare at the moment and it has a custom rear drive shaft as I use it with a Monoblock too.

Yeah I know. ARGH WIRES! :D

UE Lightning
UE Widetrac
UE Monoblock
UE Idler
UE 8 spyder Diffs
UE Supershocks (8)
UE Servo-Saver
UE 6mm CVDs
UE Titanium Center / Custom Rear Shaft
Gorillamaxx Single Speed
Strobe Slipper
DACE 23mm Hexs
GA Titanium Front/Rear skids
FLM Bulkheads
40s Velocities + Bowties


Please be aware, I'm not selling it (so don't PM me), I just want to know the value if split or sold as a piece, it would be nice to know since it was an awesome investment! :D

ill give you 1 thousand paypal right now!

hahahaah jk!! AWSOME trucj though! wow...

Really nice truggy. But unfortunately, rc's don't have all that great of a resale value. My guess (really rough estimate) for it would probably be 1000 - 1200. I have seen many full aluminum e-maxx's on ebay, and many of them are being relisted over and over again.

Good luck selling though.

ClodMaxx 06.12.2007 07:55 PM

agreed. and why would you ask what it's worth with no interest in selling? you're bragging that you have a lightning chassis, dang it... just what i'm looking for... :031: lol

i saw a truck just like yours go for $1200 or $1300 not long ago on UE's forums. lightning, servo saver, 8 spyders, double supershocks, etc. but this one had racerX suspsension, which is worth more than the widetrack. if you had towered VBS i'd say you could probably get around $1800. UE is holding its value more than other 3rd party suppliers, but i think the bottom is slowly falling out of that as the 'craze' lately is not so much maxx's and more revo's and 1/8 scale buggies/truggies.

as always, parting it out usually gets more. if you do that, let me know! :027:

about the only RCs i've seen make people money are the vintage Tamyias, well vintage anything.

rchippie 06.12.2007 08:05 PM

If you were selling it i would say part it out on the UE form. You would get more for it that way.

Well, yeah, I am thinking of selling it but if I'm only going to get $1200 for it then I won't bother! :(

It's a fun truck, just don't have time for it and since I've had it for like 4 years I don't know how much all the bits were.

spliting it out and ebaying it youd probably get about a grand nick i got about £400 for mine and id spent no where near as much on it as you have it was all RPM arms and the chassis was like a frying pan from jumping it.

sellig it may be the way to go though i have far more fun with my ZX5 than i ever did with my maxx and its cost a fraction of the maxx, deffently far more reliable. Sure ill have far more fun with the hyper to when i get it runing right.

Hey! How did it feel driving a ZX-5 at 70mph?
You've destroyed the poor thing!!!

rchippie 06.13.2007 12:04 PM

I got $900.00 for my CF racebomb with full UE & GA bulks, on ebay. Just to give you an idea .

suprisingly controlable ill start a thread on it soon (dont want to hijac nicks) next stop 80

captain harlock 06.13.2007 05:39 PM

Oops! Beg your pardon, Nick...BTW, I'd give the SuperMaxx a 1500 dollars. People just don't appreciate highly sophisticated machines.
