Default Is this a good deal?

Hi, there is a Revo 3.3 on ebay for $350. It says it has never been jumped or raced, has been broken in properly and only has about one gallon of fuel through it. And it says it is only about one month old. Seems like a good deal but am not sure. Any help would be appreciated.

Seems fair. The Revo's in my area sell brand new for $519 for the 3.3 RTR. One of the guys running my parents' track bought a Team Losi Muggy for $300 RTR (used off e-bay) and that truck is SSSWWWEEETTT. I'm not a big Traxxas fan, but there are 4+ guys who run the Revo's at my parents' track and the trucks seem to hold their own (they run their own class of course, but even against other trucks practicing they seem to hold their own). They're fast and seem ok...best of all though, you need parts, you'll find them ANYWHERE. I'm into the 1.8th scale, but I'd jump on that deal if thats what you're looking to buy anyway. Saves you some money to buy some upgrades

not a bad deal if he is telling you the truth.. i just paid a little over 500 for mine brand new.. they are awesome trucks and you will really like it.. i just got the new tmaxx too.. pops wheelies like crazy.. if the guy has a lot of good ratings the i'd say go for it.. does it come with the rx battery and charger? the stock charger with the adapter is about 40-50 bucks.. plus the rx battery is about 30.dollars.

then is the ezstart?? make sure he has the wand and battery.. jake

Forum rules don't allow links to ebay auctions. I received a PM from a mod once and had my thread deleted from posting a link to an auction. [&o]
