Confusued!

Afternoon All! I've finally got round to ordering my first Tank, I've gone for the HL Tiger! Anyway....I bought it from ebay and it was advertised as The *Upgraded* version, Brand new, S&S, Metal tracks, Metal gearbox, and Metal sprockets also with the RX18 Built in. The confusion is down to the fact that the same seller has the 'Pro' version for sale, For more money, Yet it advertises as having the exact same spec and components as the 'Upgraded' version I payed less for? the difference in price between the two was around £6, The seller does have alot of good feedback, So I assume I am missing something somewhere? Cheers guys, DR.

Hi DR,

Without actually reading both listings its difficult to say what the differences are if any, may be its a better paint job? Ask the seller, why not.

This is the one I purchased: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/HENG-LONG-RAD ... 4abdb48312



This is the 'Pro' version:

Anyone see a difference?

Hi DR,

Pro version has longer play time 30min so will probably come with uprated battery, which you can also buy separately, then you will have a spare.

Sounds like the same tank DR....some sellers do that...not sure about that guy though....he's the guy that steals videos from Youtube for his auctions...Ran Phil's T34 for awhile till I busted him :haha: ....There's a seller on EBAY US that does similar...though the cheaper listing is usually a "bid" type auction and the higher priced on is a "buy it now"...it's probably a similar idea...just this guy hasn't got the method down yet :haha:

Best of luck on this :thumbup:

By the way DR... did you try to contact the seller first ...just to make sure you were getting the pro model?

Just a word of support for DING DING, He supplied me with a part for one of my Tigers that I could not find anywhere else. so to me he is one of the good guys. :thumbup: shaun

I have never had any proof to back it up but I have always been under the impression that he has some sort of tie up with HENG LONG and with a 99+ rating on E-BAY I would trust them :wave: shaun

I'm pretty sure Dingdings real name is a company called Big Boyz.....They advertise on Amazon using Big Boyz as their trade name....

PS.. They also have the same tank at different prices on there to.....
