Well you are quite the intelligent person. Let me provide some usefull tips:

Provide a pic!
Provide some general info!
I know it may be stock but the condition matters, no one wants a scratched, rusty, crusty, musty E-maxx.

Dont be a weiner and be so vague!

nitrohead chill, its easy to give a ball park if it is totally stock(as noted in the post). You just give a decent starting amount and adjust from there.

If the Emaxx is totally stock and is in decent shape you may be able to get $200 for it. You will need to add or subtract from there for condition/accessories/extras, etc.

I believe the rule of thumb is to take the original cost of the truck, add the cost of upgrades (not repairs), then divide that total by 2. Then subtract from that value based on the condition. So if the truck cost $400 brand new, and the arms were upgraded with RPM parts (~$50), then the total in the truck is $450. Divide that by 2 to get $225. Subtract another $25 for condition, if it's not like new, and you come up around $200.

Yeah sorry for my post, I was still a bit aggravated about a post made about Revo's in the traxxas forum. []
