Wanted! Mini, or beginner R/C

Well, one of my co-workers has a son (actually triplets LOL) who is getting into R/C. I steered her into the right direction with a couple catalogs and magazines for her 10 yr old, but I don't think she can throw down a couple hundred for one of her three boys (divorced mom and all).

New stuff is too much, but used stock minis are cheap as well as older stampedes and bandits. Let me know what you have for $50-$100.

I can throw in an odd trade. I got rid of almost all my uneeded R/C stuff
But I do have some wierd, and/or cool stuff lying around:

iRobot Roomba smart vaccuum things. It cost 300 new.
A really nice Case XX brand folding knife, bone handle, 4" blade, 5" folded
Piranah 4 amp DC only nimh/nicad charger
Almost new Nylint 1/6 rock crawler
The digital camera that the scammer sold me for 40 bucks
A box of 10 or 15 older disconnected cell phones
A vintage Futaba big 'ol box like radio system w/reciever,servos from the 1980's that still works!

There you have it. If you got something thats been sitting a while and want to help me out, let me know.
Thanks!

It's long gone, but I hooked that $9.99 6 cell deal for Orion Rocket packs a while back, and they are decent batts. Maybe if you search far and wide, you could still find some of those? Decent charger...good luck on that on a budget. A good charger is one of the big items that keeps me from taking electric more seriously.

I have a mini RS4 that runs good, comes with everything to make it RTR, only a charger will be needed to charge the pack. I'll see if my daughter wants to let it go, she's not to into it.
$50
I bought it for $40 and put about $20 into it. I've only driven it 2 times and my daughter once.

I'll ask her today and post back up later today. She'll prolly want to sell it since she doesn't use it.
