Meanwhile,after listening to many customers' opinion,we decide to upgrade an full brushless,more scale and detailed new version rc hydraulic excavator,which prototype on Volve machine,we called it EAGLE JD-X 1/14 RC Hydraulic Excavator 2.0 version,we started this project around 8 months ago,which pictures without painting is as below,but main technical datas we shall publish later,estimated release date of this machine is June,2016."

I think you may be misunderstanding Eagle's posting there... The way I read the first paragraph, is that they are thanking customers for their support and suggestions, so they are getting rid of the older model... "this version which carries many customers' memories", at the lower price of $1790.

The second paragraph... MEANWHILE (meaning while they're getting rid of the old model) they have introduced this NEW model, pictured below, to be released later.

There is no indication that the new model will be at the sale price of the old model.
