Price check thread
 
Hi there,

I hope it's OK to post a price check.. That is, to find out what an item is considered worth.

Team Associated SC10 roller

Started out life as an SC10 RS, but now has:

Proline big bore shocks front and rear
FT alu hexes on the rear
B44 rear hubs (larger outer bearing)
New gear diff installed (used old but mechanically excellent outdrives)
High torque slipper pads
CVA drive shaft setup (as opposed to the original dog bones)
Factory team front bulkhead
FT blue titanium turn buckles
RPM front bumper + chassis brace
RPM ball cups
Stock servo (yes, not an addition, but I figured I should mention it's included)

Thanks :)

I don't think what it's worth is really a factor on here. It's more "is it a bargain?"

Grumpy_Mark 01-26-2014 01:52 PM

Its worth only what someone is willing to pay..

Stick it on eBay, $0.99 starting bid, and whatever the auction finished for is what its worth..

wever75 01-26-2014 02:19 PM

Probably around $100-125 USD

nexxus 01-26-2014 04:51 PM

Really is hard to say, what may be a good price for one may be too high for another, and it can change from day to day.

Late Jan / Early Feb is always slow on the FS boards, Credit Card statements from the Xmas season are starting to filter through, a bit of bill shock happens and people tighten up the purse strings. Happens every year.

Thanks everyone..

In response to wever - cheers, thats around what I got for it.

In response to nexxus - Yeah, it does seem that way. I noticed the for sale boards turn very slow by mid december and hasn't yet picked up.

I ended up selling it to a local mate for a price I was content with and a good deal for him. Advantage for him is knowing that I spent a good many hours tidying it right up. It's literally ready for elecs then the track. :)

Feel free to close this mate.. Thank you very much for allowing me to pose the question here, even though I didn't get much in the way of $ estimations. It helped regardless. :)

On that note.. another forum I an on has a specific section for 'price checks' and it works very very well. It would be even better here as members are not encouraged to leave the price that items have sold for in the original listing. Something that would make working out item values much easier.. bit of food for thought anyway. :) (even a stickied thread would work well)

Thanks again.

nexxus 01-27-2014 03:36 AM

Ok let's trial this, We'll make this a price check thread where people who have something can guage a rough estimate of it's worth if they wish to, that way they can use that information if they wish to sell or may choose not to. I will put this thread as a sticky now, and keep an eye on it, it may help some people, but if it turns into a nasty thread, I will take it down very quickly.

So ok guys, lets see if we can do this!

Well, I have another one.. Hopefully I can get a little advice.

Schumacher MI4 CX. Bare roller with one set of touring or drift wheels (no elecs at all) and an old ordinary body, otherwise as you see it. She's in good condition, if a little dusty.

nexxus 02-01-2014 06:52 PM

Last few have been on a yr or so ago for $200 and gotten very little interest, given the car is another year older, and people are selling T3 2011's-2012 for 130-180 lately I'd say $100 tops.

dan200487 02-05-2014 06:56 PM

After a rough price on a amb rc timing system with 3 loops big roll of the coax cable decoder box

nexxus 02-05-2014 07:10 PM

i think anything over $40 and youve done well

as a general rule with second hand stuff thats in decent condition 50% the price of the same thing brand new is about right

meakinracer 02-17-2014 02:30 PM

thanks for the reply i have put it up for $25 inc post

And how many replies would you have without it? :)

Chamelion 02-21-2014 01:30 AM

Tekin T8 2000kv truggy motor. Excellent running condition, good physical condition with a few minor imperfections (stone chips).

Is $120 too much to ask?

nexxus 02-21-2014 01:40 AM

80-100 is where I'd be going

Ok prices on:

M11X radio
M12 Radio
Tamiya VDF Drift Roller

Because I have no idea on these ones!

Chamelion 02-21-2014 03:46 AM

$100 might be OK.. If I had to choose between settling for lower or keeping it 'just in case' I'd do the latter. Will see how I go, thanks. :)

Hey guys just want to get a rough idea what a fair asking price for this thing would be. I know it's only worth what someone's willing to pay but this may help me decide to just shelf it or try sell.

Team associated 18R RTR. Includes battery and charger. Also includes a new skyline clear body and carbon wing and gold wheels. Runs well just not what I'm into.

Cheers
Boothy

nexxus 02-24-2014 05:59 PM

If it's the old brushed version maybe $50-$70 area, may get more as an auction on Ebay

Sounds about right :nod:

Boothy82 02-24-2014 06:35 PM

Yes just the brushed version.

Thanks for the help guys, much appreciated.

Looking to pass on an AE FT SC10 roller soon with the following hop ups-

Aluminium Front Spindles and rear hubs
RPM Front and rear arms
Jconcepts Aluminium steering bell cranks
STRC Aluminium Battery strap
Protek Bearings
Proline extended body mounts
RPM ball cups

Also comes with a decent body, a few sets of barely-worn wheels and tyres as well as 2 complete sets of brand new AKA rims. Has a heap of spares and a brand new gear diff installed.

Any ideas on what this would be worth? I bought barely used on the forums last year but can't remember what I paid, maybe $200?

nexxus 02-27-2014 10:55 PM

150-200ish I guess

BigBangPro 02-28-2014 03:01 AM

...just wondering ball park figure - cheers

Might fetch $250-300 if you can flog it into an area that runs noisy skinny tourers :sweat:

Brushed losi XXX-SCT in what appears reasonably good condition with a decent stock body? $100-$150?

nexxus 03-07-2014 11:49 PM

120-150ish certainly more than a Losi Strike!

RiZZa 03-08-2014 04:22 AM

Tamiya SRB Rough Rider (OG not rerer) rear end in restorable condition. I have gear cases, gears, rear arms, driveshafts, wheel mounts, frp chassis and metal plate, motor, rear roll bar, whip antenna, front and rear shocks. Some front end parts. Still have to clean up electronics box. Any ideas ?

Chamelion 03-09-2014 12:44 AM

Wish I could help, but way out of my area of expertise.

HPI Super 5sc flux in excellent condition? $450-$500?

Problem with selling one of these is it's two expensive to freight so you are relying on local buyers. $400-$450 area.

Chamelion 03-09-2014 03:25 AM

Yeah, this is true.. fortunately I only paid $430 with a couple of 3s batteries a few months ago, so I'll still be ahead. :)
