whats in and whats out

Goblin 500s come up a lot too, funny how models trend like this, I can't imagine people flog the latest logos because they fly crap

3 or 4 people selling or buying is not a trend.

Was not aimed at you You have my word on that. Infact I cannot even remember any incident. My memory struggles on important things let alone anything on a forum. Apologies If you thought I was having a go. I was not.
I was simply pointing out how trends can have an effect on someone financially through no fault of their own.
I thought I was on topic.
I think the best example recently has been the poor guys with obliterated goblins. I feel really sorry for them that so much hard earned money invested cab be lost so quickly and even worse cannot be rebuilt at a fair price resulting in total loss.

Ok mate, no worries. I apologise again for taking it the wrong way

I agree, trends dictate sale value more than anything. Difficult to predict how things are going to turn out for which brands when etc...

I also sold a Gaui X7 worth £1000 for £475 which is less than half price too. Both sold quick as others must have agreed with the pricing

Or maybe your asking price was much lower than they would have expected to pay normally Adam ?

I guess it's a bit like me selling my iPad for £100 when I could have got more of course it will sell quickly

Thats it I only sell when i want a new model, so i'm not looking to rinse every penny out of it. I just want to move it quick to have a nice lump towards new air frame. Like you say, price a bit lower than normal to get it moved on without too much messing.

There is a lot more than 3 or 4. The world is bigger than heliaddicts.

I would be interested if it was just the airframe as I already have motors, ESCs, servos etc etc. I was a bit too late to the party for Nick's 600 3d or I would have bought it.

I don't know why it seems there are often waves of the same thing for sale. I guess there are enough heli flyers that just spontaneously move over to something new. I tend to try to find helis I like and then keep them forever.

Just to add, I saw yours rockyrotti but I am not setup with the facility to be able to finish painting the canopy and the new ones are very expensive.

I wish I could keep a heli but I buy and sell all the time and the wife hates it ,and I tend to sell cheaper just to get the cash for the next one . I would be willing to knock of £50 I have been meaning to get canopy painted but just not got around to it.
