The buggy chassis and components have roughly 2 gallons of run time on various surfaces.

wow man, that is a nice list. I dunno much about buggies, so I would not be able to say a price, but I should think at least 200 bucks with all the airtronics and spares to boot. Good luck on getting it sold, just put it on Ebay with a high reserve and see.
 
Unfortunately, resale on RC's sucks the big one... I would have to say in the area of $500.-$600. for everything, as long as its clean.. I'm sure you paid over a grand for everything new... Good luck..

not quite a grand, but close to it.
i know that reselling rc's is tough, but i wanted to get an estimate on how bad it was going to be...
 
the resale value on used stuff is horrible....figure 350-450 I've got a very similar situation going and I can't get 500 for mine....and it sucks cause you know it's worth every penny of it but too many scumbags sell crap and now nobody wants to risk bying used over the internet......wish there was a way to force darwin awards those dipspits......
 
Yea resale sucks ass...probably 400ish I would guess. I'm with beason you could get more if you sell separetly...I'd take that 94358 servo :)
 
gabe for 400 i would keep it man.. thats a huge loss. i see hypers with no where near as much into them going for 350-375.. and have no extra's. the only thing i can think of is throw it on ebay with a reserve... an see how it does. if it sells sweat .. if not then part it out.... major stuff first like servo's motor, roller an then parts..... ect ect... just an idea.
 
yeah. that is becoming an option right now. just hate to pay the ebay listing fees...

ha i was interested in a few bits to... lol
 
I dunno guys.. I bought my TC3 about a month ago for $255 shipped. I kept the charger (Prophet Plus) and sold the XR3i for $76 shipped. I sold the car for $185.50 shipped as a roller w/ esc. So I made money on the deal and the resale on tc3's SUCKS right now. I guess it depends on how hard you try to sell it.
