Default Problem with sitting on shelf, new in box?

A local hobby shop has a 2.5 Jato still sealed in the box. Is there anything to be concerned about buying a model that may have been sitting on a shelf for over a year. They want 350 for it but I'm confident that i can talk them down to 320. Any thoughts?

why would there be anything wrong with it, if it's still sealed. i would see if you could get it for even less, it's an old model

You can buy a 3.3 from www.ultimatehobbies.com for $349 with free shipping so even if you talk them down to $320 by the time you pay tax you will be about at the price of a new 3.3. I wouldnt touch it unless you could get it for $275 ish. Jmo though.
