Default Enerjet Motors on Ebay...But Pricey

FYI

Two bagged Enerjet motors have recently been listed on eBay....and E24-10 and an F52-8. Pretty high starting bid around $299 or so, with a Buy It Now price of $399 each. Just search under the term "Enerjet" and you should hit them both.

They do look like pristine examples in their respective bagged packaging, which would identify them as 'later' examples after the cardboard boxes the motors were originally sold it had been discontinued. That's some pretty steep pricing on them though.

Not my listing nor do I know or represent the lister of these two motors.

Whomever is trying to sell those bagged motors for $399 each needs to put down the CRACK PIPE !
They won't even get a bid at their ridiculous starting bid.
I have never seen a BOXED Enerjet motor go for anywhere near $299 let alone $399.
Get Real !

I'd have a hard time justifying a minimum of $718 for two small rocket motors.
Sheesh!

Yes, I'd be surprised if he gets any bids at those prices....he'd probably need to drop those by about half.

He has a number of interesting hard-to-find rocketry items for sale. Take a look:

http://www.ebay.com/sch/buckshot496...sid=p4340.l2562

Way over-priced, but available for those with very disposable income.

I do recognize the ebay handle as someone that was actively buying rocketry items on eBay around 10yrs ago.
