[badhoopty]

i'll try to remember to take a pic and throw it up here in case anybody may have a use for it.

What kind of idiot puts on a bid on a $35 BIN JRX2 body?

Man, I should have just bought both bodies and held one for one of the someone this board. Sorry guys, it was late, I wasn't thinking right.

The lovely lady says she has a number of bodies, I have asked for one and am waiting for the invoice now.

Fingers crossed I can get one or my JRX2 is going to ebay as every part I try and buy for it, or buy seems to go wrong

Is everyone sure that this is a genuine body and not a repro?

How do you tell if its a repro or not?

[mrlexan]

I'll look at the one that I have at home (it's the real deal and it's un-cut) and do the best visual comparison I can. The one thing that concerns me is the size of the side pod mounting hole..... it may be too large. I'lll check later and post when I get home.

I'll see when it arrives. This is what feedback is for. That, and if it's a repro and not listed as a repro, I'll definatley report the seller to ebay for selling fake goods and not listing them as such, and get a refund.

A couple years ago this happened with some vintage Hutch BMX stems and headlocks. This seller had a stockpile of somewhat rare parts, but it turned out they were all reproductions, but he wasn't listing them as repros. I'm sure it happens all the time.

Even if it a repo, it's still not a bad price. Figure bodies today are anywhere from $15.00 to $40.00 (the high side includes decals of course). People doing repos are doing no where near the volume that HPI, Parma, etc. are spitting out. If you can do a short runs of repos for that and still make a buck, then I think you are doing pretty well.

The last real JRX2 body I saw, that I can remember, went for something stupid, like $160.00. I can remember seeing two in the past few years.... they both went for over $100.

But I agree, don't try to sell something you don't have or pass it off as original.

[Northy]

Don't get me wrong, it was just a question as the part you cut off looks a little rough.

I'd still like one though, may email her.

I don't mind buying a repro Losi body. But, I'd like to know ahead of time if that's what I'm buying. If the seller doesn't state that, the seller is not honest and must be destroyed. Or at least called out.

I'm the idiot that bid on the body. I would have used the BIN, but I needed a few days to get $$ into my paypal account. Get over it guys, it's ebay.

It's gonna sell for more than $35.

[justinspeed79]

Yeah, I know, but this way at least I have a chance at it, even if I have to pay more for it. A good friend of mine has my old JRX2's, I'm sure I can get them back for next to nothing, or maybe even nothing. The bodies are long gone because they were converted to oval racers, but the cars are nice, if I had a body I might be motivated to get them and build them up.
