He wants $249 for the body. It's New Brite. I bought one of these online through a Walmart Christmas special about 5 years ago and paid $25...AND it had all the running gear, the battery and controller. This is JUST the used and beaten body.
We should be allowed to protest rip-offs like this through eBay.

I bought 2 back then. They sky rocketed on all the forums shortly after because they become unavailable in stores.

I know it's hard to believe, but that not's that out of line for that body these days.

That's just nuts. A couple of years later I GAVE that body to @NCNitro. (You OWE me, Joe)
Just like the big HummVee H1s, they are hard to get. I recently got my 3rd one for $100 shipped.
Everything but the body is tossed, including the windows.

I completely agree with you Ralph. Then again, the scaler scene has never been what I'd call a thrifty niche of the hobby.

I don't know if they were ever in stores. I think it was strictly an online Walmart deal.
I still have that PT Cruiser New Brite put out many years ago. They seem to be like Matchbox cars. Limited run, never repeated.

They were just out in my walmart right before Christmas. Ralph, I just helped you clear off a spot on your shelf.

Plus mine has a huge hole where the back seat use to be

There were in stores and online but cheaper online that year. Online had like 49 cent shipping too. You know New Bright saw a huge increase in sells that year haha. Really was and still is one of the best scaler bodies ever, lots of detail and very sturdy, super easy to mod too.

It was about to be turned into an off road crawler, hence, no back seat. You don't like that? You want a refund?

You're absolutely right. I had forgotten about that.

 

[slowngreen]

They had the JK's and the f150's for the same price. The f150 wasn't near the quality and detail though. Blacked out windows and was narrow, seemed out of proportion.

ALL the New Brite "Toys" suck, but the bodies are first rate. The latest H1 is a Nikko and I can see the mechanical differences but the bodies appear to be made by the same mold.

Yes...yes I would! You son of a....

 

[HPIguy]

BITCH!!

NO REFUND FOR YOU! No soup either. I want my original 59 cent shipping back.

(Thanks for the backup, @HPIguy )

The entertainment value on some of the eBay pricing is just TOP NOTCH!!! I see it on Craig's list too... Where ppl are looking for WAY TOO MUCH for something and then list 'no low ballers'! Buddy, your balls must be DRAGGING on the floor 'low'! They must be HUGE to be asking this kind of money for this beat to SNOT...(add product name here)!!! I LOVE when they say things like price firm and no low ballers! Just BEGS to be abused... Just a little bit!!!
