PM sent.
I got the car today... not real happy. Add says like brand new, but its pretty used. Chassis is pretty worn, full set of sway bars is not there, body washers not there, something is bound up in the drive train, and the brass weight set is not complete like you said. Outdrives are shot, too long of a ball stud was installed in rear bulk head and wore a groove in the outdrive - no clue how you even ran the car this way, but someone did.

well no use in responding to the PM since you said the same thing here so I'll respond it since you are making it public.
Ad says approx 3 months old so there will be some wear n tear , It worked fine for me, even before I took the electronics off, and I never had a binding in the drivetrain issue. . Brass weights were installed on the aluminum and graphite chassis, the pictures show them. You can use body clips as body washers.
I thought I packed both sway bar bags but I found the other bag of sway bars , I'll stick them in the mail.

There is no way you ran this car the way it sits. The drive train literally doesn't move.
Yes, the 10G weights are on the chassis, but the 20G weights are not included - hence not a full kit.
I would prefer to keep it public, as the car I received is clearly not the car that is described and while I have never had this happen to me, I have seen it many times and it generally does not end well for the buyer.
I would appreciate a refund, this car is not what I expected, nor was it even close to the description "its like brand new and well taken care of". It may be 3 months old, but it is clearly not like brand new, nor taken care of.
I can post pictures of the car if you would like, however I think you know what it looks like.

Just a heads up to anyone looking to purchase from him in future:
He was completely unwilling to work out any of this, his exact quote in text was:
"(1/2)
I sent what was advertised. It's not my fault if you thought it was brand new when clearly the ad said it was 3 months old.
I'm sending you the other pa
(2/2) ck of sways and thats it."
I filed a paypal claim this morning and I will let them handle it.

I have a TC6.1 WC (can't even tell you how old - years though) that was run on old gray carpet as well (can see all the fuzzies) and it's taken care of. Just replaced all 4 bulkheads... just because. It doesn't look like the carpet fuzz has been removed in 3 months on that car.
I had been keenly watching this ad because I'm wanting to pick up a 7.1, glad I didn't pull the trigger on this one. Sorry for the bad exchange, hopefully paypal and/or the buyer will come to terms with it.
I'm always leery when "like new" is included with a used RC car. I prefer "clean and maintained"... I know it's not new.

I've done the too long of ball stud and have had it rub the outdrive. Really no big deal. Some rub marks on the outside of the outdrives does not hurt them one bit. Just put a shorter ball stud in there or put a shim in there to lower the roll center some. I don't run carpet, but just because there are carpet fibers there doesn't mean the car is junk. Personally I'd keep the car.
Oh, one other thing you could do, looks like he's running the highest setting on the cam position. Most factory drivers are running medium low. Go to that setting and you won't rub the outdrives.

It's not a matter of if the car is use able or not, it's the fact that it was listed "like brand new", and clearly it is not like brand new.
I am well aware of what is needed to make this car right, but that isn't the point.
I paid 385, if someone wants it for 385 let me know, if not I'll let PayPal handle the refund dispute and just get my money back.
Fyi, this is only 1 picture, the graphite chassis is quite worn, razor blade on the edges, the droop screw holes are 1.5 mil deep.

And I would be happy to have the car, it's not like it's not salvageable or anything - but from that 1 pic alone it IS NOT in like NEW condition. That was my point, my 4-5 year old 6.1 looks better than that. That's all I was saying. And I think that's the buyer's point - car did not come to him "as described".

Carpet fibers? Is that an issue? A slight rub on the outdrives. I'm guessing he built it with the kit setup but had some handling issues so went to the higher roll center. Then he tried the higher rear diff and he just didn't notice that there was a slight rub on the outdrives. Doesn't mean he didn't take good care of the car. And rubs on the bottom of the graphite chassis, pretty normal. I just think there are some very picky people out there.
