Default Am I missing something on this deal?

I’ve had decent luck buying used rc trucks and sometimes not so decent as far as wore out or broken or ancient parts. Obviously I haven’t learned my lesson yet cause I did it again.

Listing says SCX10II with ungraded shocks and servo and bumper. You can see for your self with the pics. Wanted $140 for it and I gave it.

I’ve never had hobby grade crawler so I don’t know what I’m looking at for sure. (Although my Trx-4 sport kit is on the way) Don’t want to bash the seller at all. He may no what he’s doing.

Curious if I’m missing something major here?
Thanks guys!

So are you just wanting us to check if those items have been replaced?

The shocks dont look stock, they look like RC4WD king shocks which are not great shocks but not terrible.

Bumpers dont look to be stock either, cant tell what they're from.

And I cant see the servo, but if its stock it will be a Tactic brand.

Tires look like either Vaterra TSL's or Proline TSL both are good tires, the Prolines are stickier.

Not if they’ve been replaced but sometimes a good eye can tell by looking the shape the trucks in but I understand a picture can’t tell a person very much. Even without taking it apart sometimes you can’t tell much...

Appreciate your wisdom anyways. We’ll see what it all entails when it shows up.

Zoomin in on the first pic, its blurry, but looks like a jx servo. I dont think u got a bad deal for $140. The raw builders kit is $200 without electronics, wheels n tires, or body

For that price I think I can afford to do a little “remodeling” here and there if there’s some cheesy DIY mods...

Appreciate all your willing and ready comments.
