So I'm looking at maybe selling my truck to help pay off some debt and hopefully be debt free by the end of the year. But I have no clue the value and I dont wanna short myself or look like I'm trying to screw someone asking too much.

It's a trx4 bronco. Got the stock body bumpers etc minus spare tire mount. It's got king shocks and extra springs, 1.9 lurc or 1.9 gearhead whichever they choose with shortened proline boggers. Itll come with cchand rear bumper and cchand sliders and its got cchand lower link kit. And it's got the traxxas light kit with the traxxas power supply. And it'll come with 2 2s 5200mah batteries and a pretty good servo. Dont remember what it is exactly but I believe it's like a $90 or $100 servo. Has about 10 full runs on it. Everything is in great shape. Body does have normal scratches on it but nothing big. I think that's about all. If theres more I'll add it to here. Any help is greatly appreciated. Just wanna make sure I dont short myself or try to overcharge someone and make sure its enough to make it worth it to me to sell it cuz I love the truck!

My 1.5 cents... With a package like that it may be easier to separate. To most people around here those batteries won’t be of preference but someone with a basher may find them valuable. wheels/tires are largely preferential so finding someone that wants those specific wheels will yield a better return than selling as a package to someone that’s taking them just because they come with it.

As far as the truck 60-70% of new cost is a favorable return, with 50% a good bet to sell quick. Maybe sell the bronco as a slider without the servo, wheels or tires, for $300. Then get what ya can out of the rest separately.
 
My experience with selling rc stuff is it’s hard to get decent money for a complete truck. Both completes I’ve sold I’ve had to let go for about 50 cents on the dollar. Where you are located may help, may not.

I’ve had the best luck parting cars out and selling on eBay. If you’re willing to put in a little bit of effort, it can pay off.

I recommend disassembling, packaging individual parts/sets, and measuring and weighing package so you can calculate shipping through eBay and print the labels at home. USPS is usually cheapest for smaller lighter packages.

No advice on value, sorry.
 
Well that gives me a good starting point with figuring out what I wanna do. I usually do part out my trucks when I sell them cuz I can get more but I was hoping I could get enough value just selling it all in one shot but it sounds like if I do I'm prob better off splitting up like you guys said. Thanks for the input!!

Not sure it helps but I just paid $300 shipped for a stock bronco with minimal run time light kit brush guard and spare tire holder and was very sure I got a good deal. My son just spent $450 on a used sport with trax and tires I don't think he got nearly as good a deal as I did.

It does help! But I've decided on keeping it. I like the way its setup too much right now. Best truck I've had so far and crawls exactly how I like!
