Seanster43 222 Posted March 17, 2021 Am I missing something here? There’s been a lot of recent price hikes with lockdown and so on but surely this guy is on something? Please move or delete if in wrong place. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Tamiya-42203-1-10-TRF201-Chassis-Kit-w-Upgrade-Set-/265090650538?var=0&mkevt=1&mkcid=1&mkrid=710-53481-19255-0&campid=5338268676&toolid=10044&customid=EAIaIQobChMIi4TWqJC47wIVke3tCh2jOQO_EAQYAyABEgLjo_D_BwE Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
futureworks 864 Posted March 17, 2021 I saw that too - made me chuckle as it’s just so OTT 😆 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sosidge 624 Posted March 17, 2021 (opportunistic post) Well if TRF201s are in high demand I have a very nice XMW that I might part with... I'd even go so far as accepting less than 2 grand for it. Can't say fairer than that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DeadMeat666 1675 Posted March 18, 2021 But but... it has the upgrade kit...! Jokes aside, this seller is most definitely not alone. Prices are going crazy these days as demand skyrockets above supply, specifically for Tamiya kits. There's a seller looking for $5,500 for an NIB Egress. Just sayin...

Wez-li 1790 Posted March 18, 2021 2k Slightly on/off topic but I left a load of tamiya fb groups because these "collectors" have basically got their head in the clouds and the hobby has become 99% financial to some people. Shill bidding on ebay is rife, and don't get me started on things featured on YouTube one day then price hiked the next Thankfully this site has remained realistic.

Howards 457 Posted March 19, 2021 I guess they are hoping the collector - who has every other kit unopened other than this one and just has to have it, whatever the cost - just rocks up. Does look pretty poor value when you can get a Zahaak for peanuts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Koris 0 Posted March 20, 2021 I'm after a trf201 nib but I'm not paying that! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
