Default how much

ok i will be selling my t-maxx on ebay in a few days howmuch do you think its worth THIS IS NOT A PLEASE BUY ME POST THIS IS ASKING HOW MUCH DO YOU THIN K ITS WORTH OK


ths is what i will wright on ebay





Up for sale today is my prised position of my hardcore racing t-maxx 3.3?


The truck started as a standard traxxas t-maxx 3.3
Then I got bored of the power of the 3.3 engine and put in a picco.26 maxx
I ran in the engine using a heat cycle method getting the engine to 230f then shut down for 5 tanks I then ran a nother 3 tanks through the engine and put it away
The engine has super compression left and should have a good few gallons left to go through due to rumours that the picco had air leeks I sealed the whole engine up and put a new front bearing in to it a bocca one costing 20 pounds

The truck is in near mint condition with very few scratches it works 100% and you are guaranteed a great time the car has loads of aluminium hop ups and new electronics

I just spent over 175 pounds rebuilding the car the car has been fully lowered to be race worthy the truck is near imposable to flip whilst going round corners due to the truggy stance and the wide offset wheels the only was you can flip the truck it buy accelerating too hard lol the engine is so power full you can flip it on the roof jut by going to full throttle too quick its amazing

Some of the mods are as follows

Titanium hinge pins
Aluminium bulkheads
Aluminium skid plates
Aluminium servo mounts
Aluminium chassis braces?
Integgy 3 piece clutch with fibber shoes it means the last longer
Picco.26 maxx engine

The truck has just had
1 brand new fuel tank
1 brand new 3 channel receiver
2 brand new tower pro mg995 servos extremely strong and very good quality
1 brand new futba s3003 servo for the reverse
2 brand new chassis braces
1 brand new servo mount
1 brand new easy start motor and gears
1 brand new one way bearing
2 brand new front and rear difs
4 brand new hex hubs
8 Brand new arms all around
1 Brand-new wing and wing mount to complete the truggy look and feel
4 Brand new dynamite dish wheels with brand new zombie maxx tyres mounted on them these tyres mixed with the power of the picco .26 maxx will rip tar mack of the road


The t-maxx will come with everything needed to run other than fuel duel to postage laws

The reason that the arms are not aluminium is because aluminium bends and passes shock to other parts plastic flexes and takes most of the impact and If it brakes its like 3 pounds to fix aluminium arms cost 50 pounds to fix

You will also get various spares as seen in photos
You will also get a 7.2-volt charger for the easy start
A 6-volt hump pack
A charger for the hump pack
And a charger for the easy start

All that you need to get the truck running is 8 AA battery’s for the controller and
25%nitro fuel

You will also get 3 bodies 1 doge charger just painted brand new never used
1 crowd pleazer 2.0 slightly use
1 carbon fibber body used a bit

about 400 bux Canadian is about all you will get unfortunatley....you would be better off just keeping it unless you can live with the loss.

It's a shame but when you sell no one cares what you put in it, they are just looking for the best deal, I know because I've sold many cars that were worth much more than I sold them for. If you can live with that figure how much you would be willing to sell it for and stick to your guns. I know when I buy on ebay I try to get as much as I can for as little as possible. When there are trucks that are close to what you have poeple will compare and go with the best buy.

I have heard a good rule of thumb to go by. Add everything up that you have put into it and divide that by 2, thats what it should get.

never happen man....any of the 1/10 Monster Trucks that are highly upgraded are fetching about 400 bux right now...sometimes more sometimes less....unless it is a Supermaxx or something that is rare and hard to get.

naw...$400 is almost too much. the depreciation in 1/10th Nitro trucks is very high unless you can prove the motor is brand new. if not someone wouldnt know if you actually had as many gallons on it as you say and they dont know how the break in went. so since there is a gamble people want to pay as little as possible automatically thinking they will probably need a new motor soon.
