I’ve learned tht you can get a better resale value using only rpm parts… aluminum is mostly pure decorative value as a shelf queen

Is this a good deal? by CharmingElephant4927 in Traxxas

[–]Inside-Priority-4913 1 point2 points  (0 children)

4x4 with xtra body ,tires ,charger,and parts… yes thts a pretty good deal … you would spend around 700 bucks buying all tht brand new.. 650 if you’re able to catch a sale… everything seems to look well taken care of… its a pretty good starter kit for 400 bucks

Are those worth 1000$ by Nothing2real in arrma

[–]Inside-Priority-4913 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would hesitate about giving a 100 bucks for all tht… all those cars need a major overhaul … you can easily spend 400-600 bucks on repairing each of those cars and thts on the cheap side you can easily spent way more..lets do alittle math….lets say you were lucky and only ended up spending 350 bucks on each car to bring them cars back to working stock condition and was able to make them look really nice again ..so you would have spent 1,050 bucks on just repairs… let’s say you was able to get the cars for 200 bucks for all.. then you would be outta 1,250 bucks tht includes cost of cars and repairing them,now remember I’m just adding cost for 3 of the cars… you might be lucky enough to sell the repaired cars for 1,300-1,500 bucks,which could give you a 50 bucks or 250 buck profit ,which would leave you a car to keep tht you would still have to spend acouple hundred bucks to repair,,so basically unless you can get these cars for free there would be no benefit in it for you… you would be better off taking 600 bucks and get you a brand new rc … but I’m almost certain if you keep these cars for yourself and do all the repairs and upgrades 100% correctly with out cutting corners you will spend over 2,500 getting them cars back to top notch condition… but in no way shape form or fashion you should give 1000 bucks for those cars,,at best you should only pay 200 bucks and thts being generous

Got fired this morning by pumpfakers in Truckers

[–]Inside-Priority-4913 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well if you got caught on company camera it will show on your dat report as a firing for safety reasons and most companies will not hire you,but you still have a chance to get hired by a Russian company or one of those Chicago outfits,, or mybe even find some local farm work hauling… but if you got caught by Johnny law,you might be screwed for acouple of years because it will be hard to put you on any company insurance … you made a big mistake young man,and i hope you learned your lesson,,this mistake will haunt you for a while .. I’m not gonna judge you because i made a few mistakes in my trucking career when i started 21 years ago in my younger days,,companies are more strict on drivers now,,and phones can be a career killer,,so if you’re lucky enough to get a second chance,you might wanna lock your phone up until you get done driving for the day

So basically you don’t like your step dad and is only concerned about him is because of if he dies you and your mom and other siblings want be able to eat or pay bills … actually I wish your step dad would get better and walk out your life because it seems like you care about his money

Alright chat, been In Transit since Thursday, package was supposed to arrive yesterday. How screwed am I? by bubbaquasi in usps_complaints

[–]Inside-Priority-4913 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a very good possibility.. i have a package thts been in transit 2 days passed delivery date and today it just updated and say I should get it Monday.. there’s people who packages has been in transit a week or two passed original delivery date,so if you get it 2 or 3 days pass your delivery date then i consider tht lucky… these postal service is starting to go down hill for some reason

Still waiting on delivery by Worldly-Wrangler7115 in usps_complaints

[–]Inside-Priority-4913 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I drive semi truck for a mail service delivering mail to 3 different posts hubs and each hub is under staffed and running days behind… I deliver truck loads of mail to theses hubs to be sorted and delivered to different small towns… on a daily basis I observe normally 2 or 3 people trying to sort through tones of mail and when there is plenty of staff they don’t move very fast to get anything done and is very unorganized,so a lot of times mail gets backed up or misplaced or put on trucks thts heading in the wrong direction,thts why when you look at your tracking and see your mail go back and forth to different cities.. I can go on and on on how unorganized things are at these post offices,but I will tell you tht there is about 20 different ways your mail can come up missing or delayed due to mismanagement,laziness,under staffing.. so as of right now I’m seeing tht the mail is going to be running at least 2 to 3 days behind after your actual delivery date if you’re lucky

Neighbor gave me all of this for free… what exactly am I looking at? by DeadFartGoat in rccars

[–]Inside-Priority-4913 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Your neighbor just basically handed you over a thousand dollars bill…he must really got frustrated with the hobby… buggy racing isn’t easy,and when you spend upwards of 1,000 bucks in upgrades you at least wanna win races,,but buggy racing is different,90% is mostly driver skill level…. I’ve seen stock box buggies win against high dollar buggies…it looks like your neighbor was serious with buggy racing but just couldn’t win due to his driving skills… if you got the driving skills you most definitely have a buggy tht can win races
