There are precious few new people coming here to post. (Maybe there are a whole lot of lurkers?)

With the current title, you just are not going to draw in new potential buyers of the OOP kits. I look pretty regularly and there are lots of kits that have been listed for quite awhile.

My recommendation is to change the title, or start a new thread, loudly proclaiming “tons of wonderful rockets for sale”.

Actually there are a boatload of lurkers. Almost any time I look at the "who's online" list, I see a few members and a crap load of "guests". One or two are usually spambots trying to register. The rest are folks (probably TRF guys that are "too good" to come online over here) that are reading threads. For instance, right now at 7:00 a.m. there are two members online including me, and 64 guests. All the guests are looking at threads so there aren't any spambots.

I thought I sent two PMs. I guess they didn't go through.

My bad, sorry.

That's the address, he has to take it down when he's away because the site does not update inventory and he has to it manually. So he takes it down overnight. See page 17 post #165 of this thread.

Gordy, you really should get that fixed so you can leave your website on 24-7. No other website has that problem. Maybe you should confer with your service provider or webmaster of your website. It's hurting your business.

It's only operating between 9:00 A.M. and 9:00 P.M. Eastern Standard Time.

oops!! I should read all the replies before I reply.

Yes, what BARgeezer said.
