"Most" of the bagged minis I always see driving around are with the beds hacked and open to the ground, which really IS useless as a truck. The top notch trucks that are done right, are usually done so specific to the builders taste, that it's just difficult to find alot of buyers with the same taste. Honestly, I believe that if you had a "top notch" mini, that you would have better luck finding a buyer if it were in primer with the option of having it colored to the buyers choice as a condition of the sale. I'm rebuilding a custom 70 C-10 and plan to get it as far as complete "without paint" and leave it up to the buyer to name their color and with a deposit, I will paint it to their liking and deliver it as per contract. Bagged minis are just toys. Fun to play with and modify and show. Beyond that, they CAN suck as daily drivers or to be used as a hauler. They could also be viewed as artwork. Not everyone likes all works of art.
