Default Not Kits, but Catalogs...Have you noticed lately?

I drift around Ebay several times a day to take up some of all this free time I have since all my rocket stuff is in storage for a while.
Since the announcement that Estes will not have a printed or pdf version of a catalog this year, I've noticed a drastic increase in the asking price of older catalogs. Also, more catalogs are being offered than usual. And they are being snagged up, some going into mild bidding wars.
Now, if this no catalog thing turns out to be a permanent thing with Estes, I suspect catalog pricing will continue to sky rocket (pun intended). I wish I would have kept all my old catalogs now. Even if they were all in pretty bad shape from being used daily for the entire year.
I enjoy looking threw the old catalogs. It brings back many fond memories. Some I may have forgotten that included my Dad. He's been gone for 10 years now and I miss him daily, and think about him several times a day.
