Good deal for Savage Flux HP? Used $350 USD? update: got it (pics)
I am thinking about picking up a local Savage Flux HP. Thing has light use and comes with the Flux ESC/Motor. It has the Baja 23mm adapters and wheels/tires installed and the HD diffs. It needs a pinion gear, receiver and steering servo. Couple of bodies and a box of spare parts. It has doubled up TVPs.
I figure the ESC/Motor are worth $200 or so used and the Flux roller would sell for $150 used, so maybe a good deal? Or are there better out there?

That seems pretty reasonable considering that stock e-maxxes go for around $260 on eBay. For the extra $100 I would totally prefer to have the Flux

That's even better, you can probably guess that working for HPI he didn't skimp on maintenance of the Flux. Sounds like a cool deal, I wish I could find one like it for that price.

I picked up the flux. It was a good deal for sure. It was used, no surprise there, but it was in good shape nevertheless.
When he said there were extra parts, I had no idea. There are probably 20 bags of NIB parts- a-arms, knuckles, differentials, shock towers, radio box parts, skids, dog bones, outdrives, diff parts, etc.
Not sure how I feel about the 23mm adapters and Baja tires yet.

you could sell the baja stuff for a pretty penny I think
I like large tires for messing around, I think they look pretty cool.
good buy!
