Tyco 9.6V Twin Turbo Ferrari 348
Quote from evangils on February 1, 2023, 8:36 amHey friends!
Was helping my dad clean out his garage when we found one of these beauties, brand new in the original box! Can’t find a single blemish. Any idea what it’s worth? I couldn’t find any that had been sold online.
Thanks!

Re: Valuation. Yeah no eBay sales I could find however I'd put this amongst the best of all Tyco models, the most desired. Currently I have that Top Tier at $350+USD however that was created 12 months ago, and these days it's probably more like $400USD+. Heck, an Eliminator or something went for $1500 a few months back, so it's tough to say. Ultimately it depends on who is available to buy when you list.
A tip for when/if you list on eBay. If you list Buy-It-Now for a high but still reasonable price (eg. $450USD) it will either sit there and not be sold because people feel they have no chance of scoring a bargain, or worse, it will be snapped up within hours and you could have asked for more. My recommendation is to list at auction for a low starting price, and use a reserve (assuming the option available on your eBay), and you'll find people competing against eachother and possibly going over your intended price. Alternatively join the Taiyo R/C Club on Facebook and post there asking for bids.
But yes, short answer is $400USD+ in my personal opinion.
Please oh please more photos so I can add them to our article as an example of a perfect item! ;-)
