Greetings, we are switching to electric RC and i was hoping to get advice for a good selling price for our nitro stuff if i can, will be selling it all as a set.

I just have no idea what it would be worth used, i included the prices that we paid.

2 month old XXXNT RTR with less than 2 gallons through the engine, stock except for a few graphite pieces and new rear tires. Body has scratches and a few cracks etc.
I will include the throttle and steering servos but no receiver or remote.
Paid $230 new without remote or servos.

Dynamite starter box also 2 months old.
Paid $89 new

2 igniters, 1 rechargable and the other takes C's.
$40 for the pair new
Dynamite Mega peak charger, new condition.
$60 new
Dynamite fuel bottle.
$5 new
Half dozen or so glow plugs.

New temp gauge that i paid $40 for a week ago :(

Thank you.
 
Whatever you paid is fine and dandy but you need to post a price you want to sell it at. Rules require that.
 
please read my post.... i only asked for advice regarding the value , its not up for sale yet lol.

For that matter this isnt even the forsale/trade forum.

Damn My Bad. So used to members doing that.

Ok For the XXXnt with no radio or servoes I would sell it for 150 at best IMO

The igniters depending on their condition and if they have the meter..I may buy them ....20 bux maybe

Fuel Bottle umm well that would be better to keep or throw in as a package deal but 5 bux is a bit much as they can be 7 bux new depending on what size it is.

The temp gauge...what kind and condition. I have the small one that fits in your pocket by Tempgun.com maybe 15 shipped or more


Sorry bout jumping on you

My bad

Jon
Charger look around the forum and the sites. 35 shipped

The plugs again...condition. New would be best and the only plugs I would buy. May want to sell in a package deal. I may buy them. But If you sell them individually good luck.
 
No problem at all.

I am just looking for a fair selling price for all of it together, really dont want to piece it all out if i can help it.
I'll be putting it on either ebay or here as soon as i figure out a price.
 
Where in Cali are you? I may want the ignitors and plugs if you do sell em here.
 
So here is my two cents about what you should be looking to sell everything for (I do and have owned two of these, so I have a general idea of what they are going for these days):

>2 month old XXXNT RTR with less than 2 gallons through the engine, stock except for >a few graphite pieces and new rear tires. Body has scratches and a few cracks etc.
>I will include the throttle and steering servos but no receiver or remote.

If this is really the RTR, then it came with JR z250 servos for both steering and throttle, plus a JR XR2 AM radio system. All of that together is maybe worth $50-$60. And, you are probably running the stock Mach motor - which isn't bad, just not a top end motor. So if I had to calculate, the truck setup with just the radio gear missing you'd be able to sell it for about $140 to $150 as Jon said.

>Dynamite starter box also 2 months old.

Starter boxes are hard to sell individually and get a decent price. They usualy sell for about $40 to $50 and that is where you will probably have to start with this one, unless you wrap it up into the truck as a package, then you could ask $180-$200 for the above truck and starter box.

>2 igniters, 1 rechargable and the other takes C's.

Definitely throw this in with the truck. If you want to sell it individually, the rechargeable one could go for $20 or less, but the one that takes C's is a dime a dozen - just give that one with the truck to save some time.

>Dynamite Mega peak charger, new condition.

I sold one of these once. I ended up selling it for like $20 individually. Another item that you could package up with the truck and starter box to add another $20 on it.

>Dynamite fuel bottle.

Give it away with the truck. Another dime a dozen type item.

>Half dozen or so glow plugs.

Are the all new and still in the package? If so, these can be sold for like $2 a piece, depending on the brand and type.

>New temp gauge that i paid $40 for a week ago

Now there is something that should hold its value. Take nothing less than $30 for that one - especially if its a Raytek!

So, if you were to wrap all of this into one nice little pacakge you are probably looking at $260 or more for it all.

Good luck with your sell!
