DONT DEAL WITH ILLEEGAL 1
This guy is a true joke.He is a member here and rcu and proabally other places.
Heres the deal.i traded him my brushless e-revo and clod crawler for his 5t minus body and rx-tx.SO it was a fair deal at first.We shipped out and he got my trucks in 3 days and i got his a week later.No big deal but within that week i never heard from him.Well the day came when the baja arrived and he went to rcu and gave me great ratings.Ok.I got the baja and looked at it and this this was broken to crap.I emailed him telling him the problems and asked if he was going to make it rite and his first response was (just like any other crap trader who got busted out)first thing your trucks had stripped wheel hexs and a blown motor.i said i would replace it and he said no its no big deal.And then he said he would send the flywheel shroud and servo.Fine i was cool with that,i could buy the rest.waited a week and a half no word so i emailed him and asked whats up with the parts he said he would send and he responds with swearing and telling me my trucks had all kinds of problems and just whining cause he got busted out for his garbage.And after giving me good ratings on rcu he went back to rcu and changed it to negative ratings cause he knew i was going to give them to him for being a shady kid.so im not dealing with it im not going to scream and shout like a child. im just warning people not to deal with this guy or you will regret it.
here is a list of broken things that came on the baja
rear shock shafts
rear upper plate
diff
whole bottom end of motor
front bulkhead
front arms
all the ball joint
tie rods
body mount
brakes
exhaust
steering servo
this guy used pennys as shims.HOW CHEAP IS THAT
all new screws cause this guy used mix match screws and if they didnt fit he jammed them in there anyways.
I got screwed its my fault.people warned me about him and he already had crap ratings so i took the chance got what i got.I just want to warn people to think twice about dealing with him.and i will leave it at that.

be glad you didnt
Just be happy you guys didn't or you would be kicking yourself in the rear like me.He told me at first the baja was ran a couple times then after he shipped it he said he was on the third gallon.This guy likes to say a lot of things that are far from true.Just like with shipping.He called me and said it was $89 dollars to ship and when the box came the postage price was on the box and it was only $62 and some change.Which aint cheap but there was no need to lie about that.He is a very immature and dishonest person.And what cracks me up is this idiot works supposably at a hobby shop and he didn't know any of the problems with the baja.

Which makes me laugh since he does work at a hobby shop.Atleast that's what he told me and a few other people.

Did you research him? I found a ad he had for the 5T two months ago and looked trashed then...... I would be paying him a little visit at the hobby store he says he works at.
RCU is crawling with dirt bags... I will never do any buisness on that site.
