Buying and selling
Compare RcBoaters’ OSE Swap Shop and RC House for fast-electric hulls, power systems, batteries, parts, and boat services.
RcBoaters’ official index links the OSE Swap Shop, Items for Sale, member products and services, and seller feedback. The swap shop uses Offshore Electrics section names. That is a useful specialist environment for fast-electric hulls, motors, electronic speed controllers (ESCs), batteries, props, and build advice. Its member services and feedback are useful resources when evaluating boat work or a seller.
On RC House, a seller can publish actual photos, condition, contents, item specifics, price, and shipping or pickup; a buyer can compare, save, and order. Use RcBoaters when you need a performance conversation or a service question. Use RC House when you want the product details and order record in front of you.
RcBoaters’ posted Offshore Electrics rules restrict off-site auction or RC-forum links in the swap shop, so read the current rules before outreach or cross-posting. Ask for hull dimensions, motor and ESC pairing, connector, battery cell count, prop, shaft, cooling, receiver, and actual test evidence. Seller feedback is context, not a blanket guarantee. Agree packing, payment, shipping, and returns under the current forum rules.
RC House listings can be fixed price, offer-enabled where available, or timed auction. Multi-seller checkout keeps each seller as a separate charge and order, with pickup or shipping selected per seller. Current policy is U.S.-only shipping. Saved lists are for organizing candidates and do not reserve stock or provide bulk checkout. Service listings may cover repair, electronics, painting, fabrication, setup, or building, but scope, provider availability, turnaround, and handoff vary by listing.
