R/C Naval Combat

UPDATED on MAY 25,2011

MUST BE SOLD BY MONDAY MAY 30th, 2011...

Afternoon all,

The following is up for sale.  I'm going from memory, however there are a great number of parts, hulls, and related items.  This is a package deal and all serious offers are welcome.  I can provide details upon request. 

Because this is a package deal, the opperative word here is "deal".  I don't have time to deal with individual items, so please refrain from asking for individual items. 

• 15 hulls - 2 under construction;
• 2 brand new radios (may be a third - I need to check);
• extra crystal sets (forget the channels);
• many extra motors;
• more spare parts than I care to remember;
• batteries;
• bottles;
• hoses;
• a plethora of cannon parts.

The inventory is worth well in excess of $3500.  I am will to accept much less - but within reason of course ;-)  Please contact me directly at sellis@eastlink.ca if you're interested. 

Because of the volume (and weight) of items, this is for pick up only.  Shipping would be astronomical.  I am situated in Bedford, N.S.

Cheers and thanks for your consideration,
Scott.

Pictures??  Selling stuff online isn't so effective without pictures.

Hi Scott,

I doubt that you'll find a buyer for all 15 hulls/models. You've tried to sell all of them as a single package since you left the hobby several years ago, apparently without success.

You'll be more successful selling individual hulls or smaller groups of them. There aren't a lot of R/C combat hobbyists in our area. All have at least one ship and it's doubtful that any one person has the cash or desire to buy everything you have. As you said, shipping the entire lot elsewhere would be very expensive, so it would be best to sell locally. 

I'll buy the Espana back for what you paid me for it plus any additional components added. (I recall it needed a few items to be battle ready.)  What  could be easier or more convenient than having me drive out to Bedford, hand you the cash and take the Espana away ?

Regards,

Bob

I will certainly post some pictures of the complete inventory this weekend. 

Cheers,
Scott.

Hi Bob,

Thanks for your reply and I hope all is well downtown.

Because the amount I 'm looking for is not much more than getting one of the larger ships built, I would prefer to let it all go together as it's taking up space.  Also I do not have the time to go back and forth in e-mail and always be around for people to drop by. 

As a matter a fact, because we need to get this stuff out of here $1500 will take the lot to the first taker.  Once I get a few pics posted the deal will speak for itself.  While one person may not be interested, this could be an opprotunity for a few to divide and conquor.  For example, with 4 people at $375 a piece, 2 would come out with new radios, 3 to 4 hulls each, and more than enough fittings, bottles, batteries, etc to build multiple ships.  Again, I shall let the photos talk for themselves.  I will lay everything out this weekend so everything can be seen.

Cheers & thanks again.
Scott
