1/24 Ferrari Daytona on ebay, $200!!!
I hope this isn't anyone on the site, but this guy must be dreaming!
He wants $200 for a built Fujimi Daytona Spyder! If the build is excellent, why is it matt red and the dude in the car got shinier hair than the bodywork! I know some time goes into these kits, but lets keep perspective! http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...&category=2583 |

He can't be serious; the paint job doesn't even look that great or it could be he just took some bad pictures. Who knows, to each his own. More power to'em if he gets his asking price.

I figure I've been spending at least 40 hours per model. And I think my time is worth at least $60 an hour - that's what the plumber charged me yesterday. So, lets see? That comes to $2,400. This guy is undercharging!

Maybe he felt that he will only bear to part with his model for $200. Ya know, sometimes there are certain models (which may not be that great looking anyway) that you will not want to sell no matter what price. He's got emotional attachment to that car man.

Thats what happens when you paint in a small closet, you get a bad paint job and you lose so many brain cells you try to sell the model for 200green ones.
I can understand that for Pmans Enzo since retail is roughly 60bucks. I can also understand that for a model twice the size, for instance I can see my Roadster Project selling for $200 if it turns out well, since its entirely scratchbuilt and 1/12 scale. But this guy is must be a child or just joking around.
