How much is this worth?

[MotoGod]

OK, I need to be careful in my wording with this post, since someone thought I was trying to sell this car, and not gather information as to how much it is worth.

I have been offered this car by a local seller, and want to figure out how much it's worth before I decide to purchase it from him, or not purchase it from him.

Here are the specs that he gave me on the car:

Nitro TC3, with an OS Max .18 CVRX Engine (Never Run), adjustable Power clutch, Venom Failsafe, 4 bodies (new), Glow driver, a gallon of fuel, Futaba 2PL Radio and a few other goodies....

Here is a picture of what it is, and what he wants to include, if I decide to purchase it from him:

Just to make it PAINFULLY clear to everyone

I thought I posted in your previous thread then went back to look and could find no notice I had made a post, and thought I was going crazy. lol. But I can understand why it was removed. I ballparked it at around $500, I broke it down a bit earlier and could do it again if you want. It looks like a nice setup, if the price is right I would pick it up.

I would agree that the overall value would be around $500 but in my humble opinion I wouldn't offer much over $350 and see if he bites.

I'd have to agree with addict.
Offer low first, then work up.
No point point paying $500 if he'd settle for $450 or anything else..

Hmmm this rig might be worth more than I calculated then.....this could be a good buy. Still trying to get more info from him though..... How are the TC3's as far as quality/reliability? I don't really know much about on road stuff yet. I have stuck to the off road cars/trucks thus far!
