i am posting this add looking for a baja of any model as long as it is hpi. i had a current deal that went bad for me and once again left with no baja. anyway my offer is i will purchase just about any tower hobbies product new in the box shipped to your door for a baja of any model as long as it is hpi genuine. send me a message or call or text me at 2036009320 to talk more about it. and at this point i am willing to make you a great deal just so i can finaly get the baja i thought i was going to get for the past month. but enough about that just contact me and we can talk. i am sure tower has something that you baja owners want does not matter what kind of rc you are looking for if they have it i will get it for you. thanks for your time. i work alot so if i dont reply to a message on here send me a text or call and i will be able to talk to you no problem on the phone

why dont you just buy one instead of the trade? Im guessing you get huge discount.

Sounds like a scam to me!

its not a scam how could it be when i am going to have it shipped right to your door from towerhobbies. i would buy one myself but tower does not have any bajas on easy pay the three payment set up. i have done this three different itmes and i pay the first payment and they send out the vehicle then from there i get two more months to pay off the bill. i have payed off 5 of my own vehicles this way they take the bill right from my back acount everymonth with no intererst. i work and put food on the table so it makes it so i can afford to buy out of my price range and trade it to get something i really want. so it just makes it affordable to do payments threw them rather than try to come up with 800 to pay someone for a baja. i am the only person responsable for the payments and so far me and the other people that have traded with me have been happy with the outcome. and yes i get a good discount. sounds like a scam that sound funny to me because i never have scammed anyone in my hole life. i work 50 hours for a living and feed the family.

Not only does this sound like a scam... It sounds like you really can't afford one.

Actually, this is a great idea, someone makes a deal with the OP for a Baja, which is likely to have upgrades, a purchase from tower is made first, of the same value with Towers tracking, and wait for shipment details, then Baja gets shipped with tracking, The ex baja owner gets a brand new what ever, and the OP gets his Baja, and only has to make two more payments over two months. Provided the Baja owner is honest, this should work, except, Pay Pal is not involved, so no protection for either party, so the whole deal stands on the honesty of the Baja owner. Or,,,, the Baja owner ships first, with tracking, and then the OP makes the Tower purchase, with Tower tracking, so, now the deal stands on the honesty of the OP. So it comes down to whomever can talk the other into shipping first."Actually this is not a great idea", and when it goes bad, and it will, we all get to see some accusations, name calling, etc, etc. To the OP, this forum has enough deals that go bad, and we all marvel at the stupidity of some buyers, and the antics of some sellers, why not wait until you can afford to buy a Baja yourself, save yourself from having allot of potential, deal gone bad stress.

Or, save those payments yourself for the next 3-4 months, then you can buy a NIB Baja for yourself from Tower.

I'm calling BS on this! I've got a kid and a house and Mr. Sam takes a big bite and doesn't leave us any crumbs. Boo uncle Sam! Anyone want to trade some CPA service for nitro parts?

But yeah, the Baja trade deal sounds fishy too.

beave928 · 02-06-2012, 09:21 AM

its how you filed man. I give a lil EXTRA all year and i get alot back. 5 grand to be exact so if you want me to school you on a lil tax prep hit me up. AND read this guys other 26 posts not one deal goes thru. He gets at least 7 cash offers on his f/t add but never replies.. He soley wants to trade. RED FLAG

the450ss · 02-06-2012, 09:32 AM

i guess i can tell all of you did not grow up in a small town like me and have nothing but our word. as for saving up for on why save up for one when i just can get one and get someone else something they want at the same time. i dont care what people think but it is sad all you have to do is talk trash when somebody is just trying to get the ride they have wanted for a long time. i have done this three other times and we were both happy so when we both get our rcs i will be the one and the other trader that will be completly happy. never in a million years did i think this would sound fishey to others out there. how can the trader go wrong when they will be getting the package shipped to them first and if i dont get what was promised to me. i will have a paper trail to take to smal claims court. but from the guys i have talked to so far i dont think it will come to this. if anything i should be worry about this because slasher666 just took me for my sc8 for now anyway. i hope he gets ahold of me soon. i dont want to have to go call cops and all that good stuff. he just needs to send the buyer the truck he bought. but thanks for all the coments

beave928 · 02-06-2012, 09:36 AM

and if im a keyboard commanding troll for trying to help this rc community then fine. I had good intentions. I have obviously built a decent rep in my first year here. Buyer and seller. Honest and in your face. Straight shooter imo. giving a few tires i have kicked before im learning

the450ss · 02-06-2012, 09:37 AM

and i do reply to people. i just had a deal going with slasher666 which was totaly my bad because now my sc8 is gone. i told slasher to wait til i sold my sc8 and i would buy his baja but he wanted me to send it to him but then he thought the truck was to heavy and my lipos were no good so he threw them in the trash he says. i will take cash you got cash i got a emaxx roller for sale right now that i have to sell to make up for this messed up deal i just went threw. i have not given any reason for a red flag ever. i am the type of guy that trust people and will usualy ship first. so why would you say red flag when you dont even know me i am not here to rip anyone of. just trying to trade for stuff that i have for stuff that i want. but i am open to cash. it is amazing how people judge and they dont even know you. i never had a deal go bad until i had my sc8 taken from me
