VINTAGE ASAHI Radio Control 2 Channels LEOPARD TANK MODEL NO 7510 in box

Description

VINTAGE ASAHI RADIO CONTROL 2 CHANNELS LEOPARD TANK MODEL NO 7510.
Item appears to be unused in box--battery compartments completely clean. Other issues: remote is super lightweight and kind of cheap feeling (even though this item was made in Japan). Had noise like some items rattling around in there like a screw. See last photo for 2 screw type items that I got out. Will be in a small ziploc bag. When I put batteries in tank and turned button to on, it started going immediately w/out using the remote. So couldn't tell if remote works or not. The tank only had one side that was turning. As I know nothing about these, I didn't want to mess with the other side and potentially break something. It's probably an easy fix. The remote has two screws that can be undone to check out/tweak the inside. Price has been marked down to reflect these issues but if you're handy, this could be a real steal. Batteries were put in to test the item, but will not be shipped with tank.
Item would also make a great display piece.
One of at least a half dozen military type vehicles I have listed for sale. Also have some military figures such as a vintage GI Joe in box, and smaller figurines.

BEFORE
checking out so I can apply shipping discount to the invoice.
SHIPPING NOTE
: most of my items (unless books or weighing less than 6 ounces) are set up to do calculated shipping. This means, based on the weight AND size of the item, plus your unique zip code, eBay will come up with and show your shipping fee. Be aware that anything over 12 inches gets dinged a bit on price (goes up a good bit) and every few inches, the tier increases significantly. This means you will pay a lot more for a package of the same weight if it is 21” long vs 14” long. I try to be extremely fair on shipping, unlike some eBay sellers who charge outrageous fees and pocket the difference. I had to start setting up calculated shipping because the same package traveling 300 miles away costs far less than if it goes 1,200 miles away. Buyers come from all over so I don’t know in advance where it will need to be shipped. As a result, I ate dozens of partial shipping costs (i.e. it cost me more to ship than whatever flat rate I had on my listing), ranging anywhere from to about . Enter calculated shipping to eliminate that issue!
Part of why I am telling you all this, is I have gotten several emails lately from potential buyers asking about a high shipping fee. In a couple instances, the ship fee was MORE than the item they were buying! It’s the calculated shipping, NOT what I would prefer to charge for shipping. Shipping fees have gotten pretty crazy, but there is really no way to work around that. FYI, anything 1 pound or heavier cannot go by first class, which has a 16 oz limit. That almost always means it will need to go by Priority Mail then, unless it’s books which ship via the cheaper media mail rate.
2022:
Additional note on shipping times—
shipping length has increased significantly for ALL classes of mail. If you are on a deadline for getting an item (e.g. if it’s a birthday gift), do NOT expect Priority Mail will get it there in 2 days as it has in the past. Priorities are sometimes taking 4 days to a week or more now. Media mail, which was never designed to ship fast, has gone from taking like 4 days to 2 weeks, to easily taking a week to 3-4 weeks. Mind you, I am giving you best and worst case scenarios based on how long I’m seeing packages I ship take to arrive. Most likely, your shipment will fall somewhere in between on those timelines.
