Default Fair trade off :)

Well, I needed to get something for my dad to bash with, and got a new toy for myself aswell! I got rid of my almost stock Mini T(ball diff and allyo shocks and a battery with it) for this old rustler, I pay the shipping for mine and his but he is including 4 extra batteries for paying for his shipping. What do you guys think? I think its a great beater to bash with, may need to be cleaned up but an overall good truck!

I have a Bandit which is pretty much the same chassis. Very durable and loads of fun. You will enjoy it and you got a deal deal IMO.

Here's a link to pic's of my Bandit:

Have fun.

Well somebody has got to ship first. If everyone refused to ship first there wouldn't be many trades going on. I say your best bet is to only ship first if the seller has numerous credible feedbacks and has been a member for a good period of time. I wouldn't suggest trading with any members who just signed up unless they'll ship their item to you first.

Looks like a good buy. Did you run it yet?

Based on the values of the items being traded, even with paying for both sets of shipping, it looks like you worked out a fair deal.

I see what you mean. I didn't catch that the first time reading his post.

Let us know when you get it and how it runs.

Got it today and wow! Its very good condition. The batteries were crappy tamiya's, changed to deans ASAP. And it was ready to roll, rides great but i did get stiffer springs, those red ones couldn't hold 1lb if their life depended on it! Anyways the rear tires blew off the rim, i glued them but will probably get some ones that the XL5 have.
