Default cheap controllers

on the local craigslist i found two controllers that i might get. one is an airtronics m8 and the other is an airtronics 3ps. the guy says they both work and he wants $35 each. is that a good deal. are those radios any good? i emailed asking if recievers are included

The M8 is worth a lot more than 35$, I say buy it before someone else grabs it.

i was going to pick them up last night but the guy had a dinner to go to. i got an email today saying that the more he looks at the controllers, he thinks they are worth more. i emailed him for a new price
