Just let the Bay decide who gets them. Maybe just list your reserve price here so we know what to expect.

the pictures dont work for me and i dont speak german so can you tell me what the auction is for.

Don't know if they make them for normal sized shocks or not. They do the job, and look better than contraceptives!

Anyway, not much of a topic, a joke thread with 1 line of a joke! (Or is that the joke???) Now i'm confused []

i just noticed that too. It would be good to see who edited it and the time. Why do i always miss the edited stuff []

Anyone got a scan of that artical from the 80's about the body shells?

i rebuild mine when they get air in. If they never get air in, they never get rebuilt! []

that link is dead. Any idea anyone?

Can one of you American guys fill me in on the joke about new jersey? A few american animations i have seen, like Futurama, make jokes about you cant live there. Why is this? Maybe its me just being a dumb Brit []

Its a current auction, is this one ok to be listed in the forum Chris? I just got lost in the "should we keep the ebay" forum. Still, looks expensive but the reserve could be low. Remember that its only 5p for this BIN price. Worth a gamble though...

[] Seriously though, i am sure it is frustrating to have opened up a new pack of something and then someone doesnt pay and you are stuck with mint condition opened parts. I suppose you should wait until the cash is in your hand before opening the parts. At least you didnt run them to demonstrate it to him!

Ever tried an EMAXX?

i have 642. How do you know your overall position? It doesnt say []

people do fall for it though. They see a bargain BIN price and hit the button incase someone else gets there 1st. They then read description and realise what they did. Thats sort ofwhat happened to a buyer on my last auctiion. He hit the BIN otion without reading the description! I made a post recently about it. It was a basically scorcher chassis with a monster beetle body painted like a scorcher, all said in the descrition. Just shows people dont read what you put.

Said it was free and nearly was. I suppose everyone looked but saw o0.01 as starting price so realised its not free and didnt bid. The winner must have bid by mistake. []

HERE IS THE LINK http://www.tamiyaclub.com/showroom_model.asp?cid=7586&id=232 If you want a link like this, just go to the page with the picture on and right click the address bar. Press copy. In this forum press paste and this will turn into a link when you post the reply. Sorry, i dont know what the motor is but it looks fairly recent.

Wrong forum maybe...

I have had shaft and belt buggies and cars but never broken or bent any of them in around 6 years. I know thats useless infomation to this topic but i didnt want to be left out []

where is the banner advert? I havent found it yet. Am i missing something?

nice one, just came across it myself.

i was a bad boy and got a top force coming from ebay.co.uk. I bid but mailed the seller an offer that was very reasonable (the sort of price i honestly thought the auction would finish at) and they agreed to it. I think Tamiya UK was bidding on it after i mailed the seller. I offered him £125 which i know is alot but it had parts i really wanted and could not risk loosing. It had the alloy rear and front shock towers (i never knew the front existed till that point) Light weight gear shafts and light weight prop shaft, the upgraded alloy shocks, loads of ball bearings and tons of spares. ( 2 more basic buggies like the top force broken into parts) Anyway, the guy was happy with that and we agreed. He mailed me the next night saying someone offered him £140 but i asked 1st so its mine. Seemed a great guy. I have never bought outside ebay before but his feedback was great so i thought it worth the risk. This allowed me to nearly complete my fully modded top force which is coming to the spring drive. Loads of spares now so breaking something shouldn't be a problem.
