I am totally blown away by this price. I had no idea these things are worth so much, but am very happy!

wow so much for something sold as untested .
congrats. sell them all n hurry lol

It really makes me wonder what this might catch...... it is too cool being one of the earliest Futaba's I have seen and NIB. I would have a hard time parting with it.

Great price. The Radio looks to be in really good shape I can see why some one wanted it.

Here is another of your auctions that I think is getting a crazy price.

i wondered what the going rate for an original viper would be. i guess we'll find out in a couple days. looking good so far, though.

how old is that futaba jay? congrats on the auction good dollar for sure

I have no idea on the actual date, but it from the 1970s. I haven't seen anything older with the Futaba tag on it, but I am not Futaba expert either.

Glad to see someone is doing well on Ebay I cant belive what you got for those green HPI wheels made me almost put up my set!

Great sale Mr.L.... Hope he doesn't stick ya .

Isn't the new viper exactly the same as the old one so you're just getting a bloody expensive old school header card?

That's me bidding on it bugle, all my other cars have original bodies apart from my team car. personally i have a target of what i'm building and i have NO intention of compromising on any of it. i've learnt that living in the uk you HAVE to be prepared to spend whatever necessary to grab things you want cos they dont always come around again.

I feel your pain brother

Ehhhhhh, for you guys anything in the US is on the 2 for 1 sale thing right now. Bad for us buying, but good for us when you buy.

It's all relative though MrLexan our fuel is now hitting $2.60 a liter and that has a knock on to all of our products prices

But it's not really a compromise when the new body is exactly the same once the protective film comes off? Dunno how it could be worth twice what a discontinued Protech 2 goes for!
