I an not trying to bash or anything. I have a Mayhem I have been looking to sell also. Belive me I have pretty much everything to rebuild it 2 times as well. You will be lucky to get 1/2 of what you wanting to get for it.

I sold a Mayhem ST in January to help pay for the new Mugens this spring. Fully Loaded with KP Extended chassis kit 3 sets of tires and all the spare parts to rebuild it at least once. Came with SW .26 pipe and Radio crappy servos but still usable. Also with One way and eliminator plate all the stuff to run it off Roto start or put it on a bump box with the Pro mounts as well as the Pro One Piece. 2 sets of 5 MM towers Aluminum Diff houseings. Got $250 for it. So just figured I would give you a heads up not to expect to much.

I figure if I am gonig to have to give away my Mayhem I will keep it around for a Basher for the kids.

Youwish,

I did a lot of searching before I bought my LOSI. I kept running across sportwerks and honestly they did not retain much value. I doubt very seriously you could get $250 for a roller. You might stand a better chance getting $250 for a rtr than a roller. Most people spending $250 and up are looking for a racce buggy. Consider this you can get a Losi roller for about $300 if you look around. I'm not bashing your sportwerk by no means. Its a good buggy but they don't resale well. Goodluck to you though I know your a student and your ready to get your next buggy.

i understand what you guys are saying. i knew this would happen when it was discontinued. i wanted to get rid of it when i first found out but i didnt have any money to buy anything else. now i have about $250 laying around and i need a little more for a rc8. if i buy another buggy, i wont have any need for this one so there is no point and hanging on to it.


i'll probably just through it on ebay. i will say though, ebay has surprised me before, i said a used nitro stampede for $225.
