Don't think you'll get many opinions without at least a pic....

Besides the pics would that be one of the new Tiger Shark 91's or is it the old version? That would make a difference in price.

I got the stickers still in their package, I could either put them on for you, or just send them with the airplane. The 5 servos are installed, and it comes with a Quattro Radio.

It's not ugly just a plain red 4* 60, I would think $350.00 bucks would be a good place to start since it is ready to fly.

First of all it cost me over $500
$200 sig 4*60
$179 ts91
$150 servos radio and other parts.
PLUS the week it took me to assemble it professionally and break it in.

Second of all, the "plain red" is simply because i havent put on the DECALS on yet.

Third of all, its brand new never flown.

So you WISH you could buy this for $350 .

You *did* ask for opinions, not a market quote. I think that you understand that the brand new items, including an assembled aircraft, will not fetch the same price that you dished out. Some people look at a built plane as used, or question it's structural integrity. Others find no problem, but want a great deal. What's wrong with it? Why would you sell it? If you want to sell something like this, realize that Billy Bob can go to the local shop and buy the same thing for the price you're asking, and get a full warrantee, also. I also think that $350 is a bit low; I would think a tad closer to $400 would be very fair. Yes, you'll lose money, but isn't $400 in your pocket better than no money and a plane that you don't want? Best of luck to you.

Why buy somthing off someone else for the same price you can get it new?? I hate to burst your bubble, but since you assembled it and even if you did a good job on it the value still goes down and is considered "second hand". Most people that buy second hand or usedwant a good deal. If I were to pay full price I would build it myself and know what I have much more than someone else's judgment. I guess you will learn all this in time. Thanks

Erm, yeah you do. Realize that when you sell something used (and no matter what you might think, this item is used) means that you no longer want it for some reason. The buyer couldn't care less what the reason (so there is no sense making something up) but knows that you want to sell it. This makes the value of what you are selling less than what you originally paid for it.

If someone on here posted "I need a 4* with a 91 in it RTF ASAP" you can bet you would get your $500 bucks and possibly more. Simple market economics.

I hope that $179 you paid for the TS91AR is a typo. Kangke.com has it for $79.77.

You have to look at it from the point of view of someone who can buy the items from, say, Tower Hobbies:

$190 ($210 - $20 discount) 4*60 ARF
$79 TS91AR engine
$100 or less for a brand new 4ch radio system with 4 BB servos (Tower's got a big radio sale going on)

One can easily buy the identical set of equipment for $370 or less, with full warranty and return prevalidges. Whereas buying second hand from an individual and already put together is AS IS only.

Unfortunately, what you paid for your stuff is immaterial to the guy buying it. Even brand new in box untouched, you'd be looking at most 80-90cents on the dollar. Put together, and your best hope is to sell it to someone local who can come inspect it. Personally, I'd say if you can get $350 for it - take the money and run. $300 is more realistic. Maybe you can get more money selling them separately.

Sorry for pouring cold water on your hopes. In any case, good luck.

ROFL:
Anyone have more videos?
I just finished building my 4*60, and the other day i went to fly it and i almost crashed it. Some videos would help.
