Folks,

I purchased a 'Line Kit' (first or second year iteration) of this kit from Tim Joyce for a whopping $125.00 back in 1999... (mint and factory sealed).

Why oh why have prices gone through the roof across the board on 1960's - 80's model rockets? Did some large collection(s) get destroyed in the Mid-West flooding?

Is Cristie's Auctions now featuring model rockets? What has happened?!?

Are model rockets the New American currency with model rocketeers? I know that several Mid-West states are now accepting gold and silver as opposed to worthless American Dollars ... are people 'dumping' dollars for safer investments? Thoughts please.
