I can't believe it hasn't sold yet at that price! The race MT class is going downhill in some areas but your truck would make an awesome handling basher. Someone needs to scoop this up!

The first thing that strikes me is the since it was originally an LST it tells me that it's pretty old and likely pretty beat. The second thing is that you're selling a well-used truck for barely less than half the price of a brand new RTR LST2. The third thing is that mostly bashers have these, and yours has no radio gear. And last, the popularity of MTs isn't what it used to be.
So it would be my advice to severaly chop the price, almost new used is worth 50% or retail while well used is much less, and I'd bet you'll get some action.

RPM arms,gear cover,carbon fiber chassis,muggyfied,servos,titanium turnbuckles ect.... not tryin to sound rude just being honest like i said before RC is a hobby your never gonna get 1/2 your money back on anything ...i have a true hoped up lst2 with over 1400 in it and i dont think i could sell it for 300...just the nature of the beast

Hop ups or the motor itself have no intrinsic value unless they're NEW bits. If they have any time on them at all they're used parts needed to make the truck whole and add no value to what's really a used LST1. Hop ups can be used to lure in a buyer, as it appears they're getting a better deal than a stock truck, but they add no increase in value.
You asked, I just tried to explain why you've not been able to sell it as is --- and at the rate you're going you won't. Sorry

you could try listing it on ebay. just make sure you set a reserve incase it doesn't go high enough. I think truggies have kinda taken over right now, everything else just seems to be in a slump.

Thats why I just keep all my RC's, it would feel like I'm paying someone to buy it back considering what they cost new, it just doesn't balance out to resale.

you could just keep it and convert it to electric, atleast it would be something different....... just a thought

Good luck with the sale.
