| Down to only 3 rc...... Don't you ever regret getting rid of one?
I really cleaned up shop.... I'm down to only 3 rc's. I think i may even get rid of my FLM pede. I've gotten rid of recently... -all my nitros -all my micros -rally -1.9 scaler The ones I really wish I didnt sell was my Tc4 rally and scaler... I guess it'll make room for my Emaxx. Which Rc do you miss the most? |

I've never sold any of my hobby grade RC's. I'd regret it later I'm sure.

I've sold tons of my stuff. Regretted very few. I like to have a few really nice rigs rather than a ton of "average" stuff. Quality over quantity. I do regret selling my Mini Giant scaler. That was a fun little truck.

Oh yeah! I forgot about those! Sold TWO JRXTs on Ebay when I first moved up here. They were in GREAT shape. Both netted me only $120. I could have definitely got more than that out of them fun-wise at the track.

I have two JRX2 I love beating the hell out of. One is complete and the other has been botched together. I quit my job last summer and had to make ends meet and sold my 2.2 pimp cane with alum knuckles, CVD's and my DX6 for $425, my 2.2 TXT tuber with a Maxx tranny $225, a TLT tuber $220, a Clod bodied TLT $200 that I loved, and my MGT. I shoulda just got off my lazy arse and gotten another job, but at the time it was what I wanted to do. Stupid stupid stupid! |

I've sold a few RC's in the past, and I really regret a couple. But like K_B said, I'm trying to focus on quality over quantity.

I must be different, but I don't regret selling any of them and I have owned a bunch. I enjoying building them a little more than driving them. I am also addicted to the cash flow thing. I like to buy, sell and trade. I will get a hold a of something, make it the best it can be, and then get bored because it's now done. I guess for me it's more about the journey then the destination. I have been into RC for 18 years and club raced most of that time. Crawlers have brought a new level of design and thought I had never experienced inside RC before. Plus, with so many talented builders and drivers on this site, it forces me to grow and try new things. Life is too short to live with any kind of regret, no matter how big or small that regret could pertain to.

I regret selling or getting rid of just about every one of my R/C's, just because in the end, it wasnt really worth it.

The only one I really regret selling is my rc10gt. As I look back on it now, I should have just converted it to electric and I would have had a lot more fun with it. I still own my original T-Maxx which is all aluminum, my titanium armed/skidded Revo, my converted e-revo, a roller e-maxx, mini-lst (1st gen), mini-quake, xxx-4 g+, my HPI 5b and about 5 or 6 crawlers. I really hate letting any of my rcs go because I go through cycles where I want to go fast or smell nitro or gas power or just try something different. I figure I know how much I can spend on my toys, I'll figure out a way to make room for them all. |
