His asking price isn’t so outrageous

With a quick search on Ebay, I found the following items that give the basic equipment to recreate the truck as he’s advertising:
Futaba 4GWD 4-Channel AM/2 S3004 Servos
US $129.99 + US $42.25 USPS Priority Mail = $172.24
Tamiya 56314 1/14 Knight Hauler Kit
US $379.95 + FREE Standard Shipping = $379.95
Tamiya 1/14 Semi Tractor Truck Multi-Function Control Unit - 56511
US $338.77 + FREE Standard Shipping = $338.77
Add-on for Tamiya 1/14 Semi Tractor headache Aluminum Rack
US $65.00 + $9.95 Standard Shipping = $ 74.95
Custom Aluminum Polished Front Bumper for Tamiya 1/14 Semi-Truck
US $29.99 + $4.95 Standard Shipping = $ 34.94
RC VSC 320A Brushed Speed Control ESC for 1/14 Truck-Rock Crawler
US $26.13 + FREE Standard = $ 26.13
Tamiya 56302 1/14 Semi Trailer Kit
US $287.95 + FREE Standard Shipping = $287.95
Tamiya 1/14 Motorized Support Legs Tractor Trailer 56505
US $75.99 + FREE Economy Shipping = $ 75.99
1/14 Semi-Trailer Light Set 56502
US $38.78 + FREE Standard Shipping = $ 38.78
Total: $1,429.70
This list doesn’t include the extra lights mounted. Any batteries or chargers would also be an extra cost
With a price of $1,400 and S&H of $100, it’s not too bad for a RTR truck for a beginner or a piece to modify
