RE: Remember Little Ezra?????
From an outsider's view, it was Chip's decision to give away the Emaxx. Period. He should've considered the fact that RC toys are not a necessity, and that he lacked enough first hand knowledge of the situation. Being generous is great, just give to an established charity next time. Or, help a family in your community instead. And, it was Ezra's choice to do with it what he pleased. Sell it, run it, throw it out, burn it, whatever. It became his property at that point, nothing else really matters. I've given away RC stuff too trying to be helpful and the person just sold it or gave it away. Most people just aren't into the hobby the way we are on these forums, that's just the way it is. The whole thing sounds like a disgusting mess, I wouldn't want to be either of the parties. Just lock this thread down and put it out of its misery.

Plas,
Don't worry... Karma's a female dog...
Now for you, my friend, cheer-up.
You - based on what you knew - actually DID something. So it didn't come out right. So what? Think of it as the "cost of niceness". Just like you racing and totalling a new truck - you'd be ticked and eventually write it off as "cost of the hobby". I don't think you'd give up the hobby from one bad crash. Right?
Remember, the world is full of givers and takers. The takers may eat better, but the givers sleep better.
And the next time you think you got a "lucky break"... maybe not... karma swings both ways....
Rock steady... Roger

ORIGINAL: qoisdhc oqina
Ok i just have to point out some things.
1.He never asked for a full rc.He asked for parts
2.Well, he did except a full rc, or 2 though he didnt need them.But he still didnt beg for a full one.Read the original thread, he asked for parts to build one up.
And i have found it kinda unbelievable that he couldnt give one of his own to him, i still dont know the full reason so im not saying more on it.
I watched him sell the slash for $100 on another site, and im trading him something for the rustler.I totally see the he didnt want it, and wanted to trade it.It was Ezras, not justins.He should be able to get something else if he wanted. I mean really where is the wrong with that?And this thread really took off, and i think the whole thing couldve been avoided if Chip just contacted Justin to see whats up with that add.I really think this was way unnecessary.But i guess thats just me.
