Needing some advise

[Childresshunt]

I'm looking to possibly buy and sell some of these looking for some input on what to buy what to stay away from and prices. The guy has no problem with running them for me

stay away from the redcats. the others seem to be good rigs. i myself would go for the savage, tmaxx, d8s and the hyper 7.

Your question is to broad. Id consider buying anything thats a name brand. Associated, HPI, Losi, Mugen, hotbodies, Xray, Kyosho, traxxas, etc. Stay away from redcat, exceed, HSP, iron track, or anything else that is a "budget" or unknown brand. As for how much to pay is subjective. Everyone is gonna have a different idea on that topic. I refuse to pay more than 1/2 of retail for a used kit regardless of hop ups becaue theres usually a lot of stuff you have to fix. If its obvious the kit is like new i may go up more than half but it just depends on the kit, condition, how bad I want it etc.

yea right off the bat i was interested in the d8, hyper, t maxx, savage depending on if its xss or the older kit (he said it was the ss kit but I'm pretty sure the newer kit comes with aluminum pipe). i would buy the off brands but i would pay no more that 50 bucks for them on account i no i would be able to get that or more for them as a parts car.

And idk the brand of aluminum on the savage but if its integy depending on what all on it is integy i wouldnt even be interested, an a arm out of an old dried dog terd would hold up better.

Well the D8 and Hyper are good rigs. Some of them I do not know what are, off brands I thinnk. There is a Savage X...also good. Looks like a T-Maxx too. What is he asking for them?

 

[Childresshunt]

He asked me to make offers. Also asked me to find a belt for an old tamiya drift car he has. said he couldnt find one idk y tho i found a set in about 5 mins with a quick search on google. So I'm gonna use that to my advantage to buy one of them i dont have a buggy yet so I'm thinking about trying to get the d8. was gonna offer 100 not running and get the belt set for him no charge and if it runs depending on how compression feels i was gonna offer 150 and see what he says and go from there i dont like to spend to much on used rc's. I'm prob gonna just ask about a package deal for a few of them depending on condition when i go see them.

I havnt gotten any specifics i was gonna do a little research and hit up the rcnitro guys and see what everyone had to say b4 making an offer. but I'm thinking even tho the maxx has a 3.3 lid on it its prob a 2.5 not sure tho ill just have to see. I'm intrested in the savage and a buggy for myself tho.
