Big ass box of Panther clones (48 of em)...

Well, I thought I'd see about trying to put together a Group Buy thing for this. But if a big assed box showed up at my house FULL of R/Cs...My wife will kick me in the balls (I like my balls, I don't want them kicked.

)

So, if anybody else is interested...Go for it.

48 Panthers for $175:

Use coupon code hobbyland for an additional 10% off too.

- Unfortunately it seems this is the only way to get 'em, buying individual of in 4-packs shows as out-of-stock.

Nammy...

I don't own a credit card. But...

If you want to order them before the end of the week and give them MY shipping addy, your more than welcome to do so. Just PM me.

I'll take care of the rest. Shipping them out and packing.

The cost ends up being approx $180 with the discount and including shipping. Which brings the cost of each car to $3.75 each.

$3.75 + shipping. I can figure that out after all the orders are placed and packed up, because I'm sure some people will want 1, 2, or 5 a person so shipping will be different per person.

I'd go as far as saying about $6 or $7 per car would be the average including shipping and boxes and shipping stuff. (which I have on hand) Instead of paying two seperate people, once the cars arrive, I can collect the funds and send you your $180 via check, Paypal, MO? Plus your cars.

If we wanna say $7, I can forward any extra cash to Cabo or re-invest it into more BP posters to pass out or something. It shouldn't amount to much.

Basically, Order them and have them shipped to me. (to protect your balls) I'll hook up the rest.

Whichever....If someone has a better idea, I'm willing to help.

I want some cars!!!!

My problem isn't that I don't trust you SG, but that all the clones won't sell and I'll be stuck with leftovers.

They had a 24pack of the NKOK micro rc boats too...But those things are already gone. I was even starting to think up some mods for it

...Like

1. Swapping in a Bit (clone, of course) pcb
2. AT LEAST a tri-cell, preferably a quad
3. Replace the dual-motors with a single ZZMT Motor
3a. Rig up some kind of way to steer (since it's just 1 prop now) utilizing the magnet steering to possibly PULL the motor to the left or right.
Hmmmm

Have you guys read the description? I remember when I used to laugh at this same ad on ebay.

http://www.raidentech.com/panther-mini-cars.html

The comparison chart is the biggest joke, here's some of my favorites.

Compare to Honda-Make Qualities and Standards !!!

In fact, if it wasn't for the aerial you could easily fit a couple of Panther Micro Racers into your mouth, (not a good idea, please don't try).

Besides, you'll need at least 45 seconds to catch your breath after playing with a Panther Micro Racer – they really are that amazing.

... but yeah, I'd probably want a few if somebody wanted to go for it.

Lol, if it wasn't for the aerial you could probably shove one up your ass, but that's not a good idea either.

I would not mind a couple of them.

Not sure what you are asking Nam are you wanting someone to buy them ship them in then you get a few or all the pimps get the money together and then send it to you then you have the cars sent to one of the pimps then they send them out?

I feel confused?

Not askin anything STG. It was a decent looking deal but my circumstances prevent me from being able to do anything with it.

I just figured I'd pass the info along in case anyone else wanted to do anything with it.

I may take this up around Xmas

I may be able to sell them for about US$10 each, and have them flow off the shelf. Maybe even $15. It won't be a killing, just a little more money in my pocket from my investment.

Hmm.. What about the case of 24 for $90? thats 3.75 a piece, or if that $10 off coupon meantioned in the first post works for it, $3.33.. With only 24, theres not a way you could end up with leftovers.. Were I live, the clones and zz's are disapearing, I'm sure its the same for a lot of other Pimps. Really, theres one wallgreens with em and a radioshack or two..

Anyways, say 10 Pimps want 3 each, 20 want 1 each.. Thats a pretty realistic figure. I'd go for it, but I've spent way too much on this hobby in the last day or two(i almost could have gotten the crate of 48

).

Fuck, I wouldnt mind having 24 to my self
