It appears that I have accidentally purchased another

Post by ZED32 »

So remember that wierd ebay situation? Yeah, that rc10 rocked up at the door today. Turns out the guy printed a label for it like 3 hours before ebay would have let me cancel my order. (It took him another 3 days to actually put it in the mail. And he never responded to my messages). So theres the end to that saga. I'm not complaining about owning another. Just what am I gonna do with it.

If you don't want it, you could put it in the Buy Sell Trade section. I would see if you like this one or the other one better. Maybe make a best buggy for you to keep from the 2 buggies. Or you have a spare parts buggy now (or at least a spare parts front end).

Or you could try to return it to the seller.

RC cars breed in captivity. No matter how many you think you want, you will have more than that. You may as well keep it, especially if you got a good deal.

It may make sense to make a best buggy and sell the extra one. Now that rc10 parts are easily available there is no need to hoard extra cars just to have parts. I have a bunch of cars I never planned to run just to have parts. There just isn't a reason for that anymore.

You speak my language. I think between this, the other, and the spare parts that came with both I have about enough to make both work. And since one is a cadillac and one is a long arm, might as well run em.

It's only the beginning. Most of my cars were bargin beaters that got turned into nice runners/become too nice to even run anymore. After getting the two you have running, you will want to have one with a stealth trans. After that it's game over and you will lose track of how many you have....... :mrgreen:
