WTB: NQD "Tear Into" Jet Sprint Boat

[ThGdThBd&ThUgly]

I am looking for a cheap hull to build a sprint boat. Anybody have one or more of these from the past that is collecting dust?
Let me know and I can make an offer. I can order one from Hong Kong but I woukd rather keep the money local than oversees.

Last time I looked, they were only $45 new - shipped from a US location on ebay. I believe it was Mideatoys.

Thanks for the info Sundog. I checked them out on EBay and they didn't have any so I sent them a message to see if they still carry them.
I see you have one also. Are you still running stock Jet?

I bought two for $54 about a month ago from:

http://www.banggood.com/Wholesale-1-25-3ch-Rc-Boat-No_757-6024-Remote-Control-Racing-Boat-p-39559.html

They had them at @ $27 each. I heard they were previously $14 each.
They arrived packed extremely well, but the rudder "servo like switched thing" was separated from the hull in both.
They had been fastened with hot glue.
You would have to cut an access hole in the top flat deck to fix this.
If you are going to refit a real servo and brushless motor and electronics, the "servo" separation is inconsequential.
No other damage though.
I would be comfortable ordering another from them (but obviously no guarantees, however they take PayPal).

Yes, I have the stock jet drive in that boat. But that is all that is stock, everything else has been replaced with hobby grade parts. Fun boat - one of my favorites to be sure.

Thanks Sir. They emailed me a day or so ago and said they just got some in stock. I was hoping for white but at that price I am not gonna be too picky :D I just converted one to brushless but the next one is getting a Graupner 29mm Jet upgrade Need More Speed.
