Default What do you prefer, when Buying an airplane from some one

Hello crew, just a little survey. I'm wondering how people prefer to buy Used Airplanes (well really not used).

I just got a Comp-arf 2.6M 260 (Yellow Kiwi Scheme) and I'm not going to use it, so my question to the FG Crew is. Which is easer to sell? Put every thing together (Since I got it all) and sell the airplane built, or sell the whole package together without building it.

Items:

DA-100
1 Mejzlik 28/10
Carbon Fiber Spinner
8 8611a
4 JR Match Box
Fuel Tank
Titanium linkages
SWB aluminum arms
Pilot
3 JR Heavy Duty Switches (with charge plug)
3 Fromeco 2400 7.4 Lion
3 Fromeco Regulators
Plus all the miscellaneous stuff

I'll appreciated you're inputs in this matter.

Regards,

Hector

Post it without building it and say that you would build it for an extra price.

If I was selling I would rather let them build. In the case that something was not done right it would not fall back on me.

If I was buying I would rather build so I would know it was done how I wanted it. Plus I would know the in's and out's of the plane if something went wrong.

But some people are new to the larger models and do not understand what details need attention. In cases like that I would closely supervise the build and make sugestions where needed. It is sad for me to see anyone lose a plane when I know that I could have prevented it.

Price it 3 ways.......

So from your experience it's easier (quicker) to sell the airplane without building it. Any more Suggestions?? And by the way if any body that see's this is interested in the Airplane send me a PM. I'm selling it real cheap. My wife is driving me nuts; I need to get rid of it. (Need the Space among other stuff)
