Default OOP/Rare kits being sold by George G., ends Sunday night March 28th

For those who may have missed it:

I need to pay some bills and hopefully raise enough money to get a 1/110 shuttle kit underway.

I have posted 12 items, mostly rocket kits, on eBay.

Oddly, as I post this, the Estes 30th Aniversary Saturn-V (re-released in 1999) is going for more than the Centuri Saturn-V from the 1970's

The auctions will end Sunday night, March 28th, after 10 PM CENTRAL time.

The kits are:

Centuri 1/100 Saturn-V
NCR 1/72 Space Shuttle
Estes 1/100 Saturn-V
Estes Maxi V-2
Estes Andromeda
Estes Titan-IIIE kit (1/73 scale)
Estes Astrocam 110 kit (from 1980)
Aerotech 29/40-120 Reload Casing
Estes Mini-Bomarc
Estes Shadow
MPC Pilgrim Observer Plastic Model Kit
Estes Altitrak Kit (From 1980)

Not to take any business away from George, but since he doesn't have one, and I am in a similar position of needing money and space, Could I interest you in an open one? All other packages sealed inside. face "card" also inside box. PM if interested.

The auctions have ended, and overall they went a lot better than I expected. Even the Altitrak got a little love before it ended.

THANK YOU to all who won, those who bid, and those who passed the word to others.

Thanks for the heads up on the forums. I never would have gotten a Shuttle to match the scale of my Apogee Components Saturn V, Semroc Saturn 1B, Little Joe, Gemini Titan, and paper model Merc Atlas, Merc Redstone, otherwise.

Glad it went well for you. I'm saving for one of your shuttle kits!

Best of luck,
