Never bothered me buying cars on here, so far I have always got what I expected

good for oople, ebay ...well like most auctions, you just have to take the chance, but saying that I paid 50quid for a losi xxxT on ebay, when it came it was MINT not even a mark on the chassis or shell was well chuffed.
I think the thing is if you were to want to pay £150ish for a second hand B4 you would expect mint with some brass etc, BUT if your sub £100 you wouldn't expect a dog, but don't expect a tight everywere minter
I have not bought a new car since 2003 ( Mugen MBX) All my cars are good quality second hand, as are most of my esc's and some servos my lipos and a few motors,It is the only way I can afford to race with the best equipment

My rallyx is a second hand car from a team driver, BUT with rallyx all my electrics and engine are new, as with rallyx things get a hard life
In short...Go for it, just be prepared to spend a reasonable amount of money, and ask lots of questions and look hard at the photos, little things soon show how well the car has been looked after...
The only thing I hate is offers (closed bid auction) most people on here should have a fair idea of price, ono if you think it may be over the top, most will soon tell you
