I purchased from eBay a Losi xx4 last summer as a SHELF queen. It was rebuilt by someone else who listed the new parts they had fitted. I looked over the car upon delivery and the description seemed accurate. The car was very tidy for such an old model. i left him five stars and positive feedback. All i did was give it a thorough clean, fitted new rims and a new shell. Its been sat on my shelf for six months ever since. I decided to move it on for funding towards new cars so copied and pasted the advert i had purchased the car from and added the additional information as appropriate. Some muppet has purchased it in november, ran it with what I'm assuming is a brushless system and is moaning that the belts have stripped. And there are some threads turned in the car. He wants a refund and has opened an eBay case against me. I see its a bit like wearing some new underpants for a month and then wanting your money back !? Advice would be appreciated. Ill put the links up when I get home.

All you needed to put was sold as seen. If you listed it as a shelf queen and not a runner I don't see how he has a case tbh. Looks like he got his wires crossed and thought it was a car he could use with today's technology
