Ebay ad's crack me up...
Go look at this Ebay auction: 3158568941 [sm=bananahead.gif][sm=drowning.gif][sm=thumbdown.gif][sm=thumbdown.gif]
The guy has a 9.5 RTR for $999[X(] is the buy it now.[sm=lol.gif]
I have a 9.5 RTR that I originally paid around $380 for a new one. At towerhobbies.com they have them for $499 new - At Nitrohouse.com this weekend they have them for $329.[sm=lol.gif]
The guy does have a Better engine and is including the crappy starter box from a Hyper 7 with the car and a temp gauge. But come on.

Yes, some sellers must be smoking crack while they type out their ads, I've seen a T-Maxx selling for $1,200+, some buggies over $700, an HPI Nitro MT for $1,500... When reading some of them, they're blatant lies of how much some things costs such as one guy with a truck stating the motor costing $350 (a Force .25) and by looking in the seller's past auctions, he purchased the same motor for $100.
Bidders without a brain are usually their target.

That's funny Rusy - Wait till you get older and get into racing. It is real easy to have over $1000 into 1 nitro R/C. Icluding all your gear and everything to keep up with maintenance.
