We should have a "Ebay Hall of Shame" thread.

Hahaha... Whew, the funny thing is that their will be idiots that will buy those products.

_paralyzed_ · 02.04.2009, 03:25 PM

that's business. I'm glad RCM members are the educated few and not the uninformed masses. I remember when x-box's came out and someone paid $700 for an x-box box. Yep, the cardboard package. Idiots.

prices look mighty steep... can't you get a whole savage flux for just a bit more than that guy wants for the motor and esc?

hall of shame for sure. and $209 for some zippy lipos? pfffft.

So I can get a MMM and 2200 CC motor for 175 more than Mike charges????

What a deal, I can't wait.......

Some people.....

Do you guys think those people went to business school? I'm guessing that _paralyzed_ went right for the money with what he said lol.

So this http://cgi.ebay.com/Flux-Blur-Brushl...QQcmdZViewItem is worth more then this??? http://cgi.ebay.com/NEW-Castle-Creat...1%7C240%3A1318 damn, Wish I did'nt buy one of the second ones.

lutach · 02.04.2009, 06:47 PM

Maybe they figure that the extra cost for the Deans, extra piece of wire and that little thing o the on/off switch was worth $100 more.

JThiessen · 02.04.2009, 07:37 PM

C'mon guys - you should know by now its the stickers....

I am with Lutach, I guess he figures the pre-soldered connectors on the blur are worth the extra $100

Dagger Thrasher · 02.04.2009, 07:45 PM

The ironic thing is that with the Castle-labelled Monster, you get a CastleLink lead too...which you *don't* get with the Blur. Those prices are just taking advantage of the uninformed.

Rnemhrd · 07:54 PM

So if I get some HPI stickers and some deans connectors I can make some $$$.

WOW I just got the idea for a new buisness. Now I need to learn to solder and apply decals,and find some suckers.Uh uninformed

Metallover · 02.04.2009, 10:39 PM

I found this a rip off. A surge protecter for $200 dollars. Monster probably makes 75% \of profit off that...

Their e-bay username should be: NewbEmporiumRC

hoovhartid · 02.04.2009, 11:37 PM

lol.

I have one of those.

I use it because as a DJ I want to have all my gear plugged into a single source without a ground buzz. Also is tells me the amps and volts, so I know I wont trip a breaker.

I didnt buy it tho....it was a gift from another DJ I work with.
