What is a fair price to pay for a 1/18 BBI F-18 Jolly Roger (black fuselage) with no box or ladder?

depends who you ask i paid $150 for mine in the box. most people selling one are asking 5 bills for them yes there were only 500 built but its not a rare plane as most advertise them. how bad do you want one depends what you pay for it. there always a repaint of any hornet.

Good answer, I was trying to decide if I wanted to pay $240.00 for one (including shipping). I remember trying to decide about 5+ years ago if I wanted to pay the $79.00 Hobby People was asking for theirs and I passed it up. I had my regrets then. Still on the fence, but I am leaning towards getting it.

Just pay what you are comfortable paying. If you are buying with the intent on reselling later at a profit then you best hold out for a better price. if not then $240 seems decent especially if it includes shipping.
