Anyone missing a Darkstar?

The lack of any details in this ad leads me to believe this rocket was found (at Bong) and put up for sale, anybody recognize it?

Looks to be from a WSGC contender, from Leech Lake.

Hmmm, The auction has ended with 0 bids..

I was able to locate the owner, and the seller agreed to end it and return it if possible - they'll be reunited at the university launch at Bong Rec. Area in a couple weeks. A happy ending.

I sent the seller a message on ebay yesterday saying that if he found that rocket at Bong Rec Area the proper thing to do would be to contact WOOSH (I gave him the link) and have them help find the rightful owner. I told him many owners of lost large rockets would pay a reward to get it back. I'm glad he took that path.

As far as I could tell from our conversation, he seemed happy to give it back to the team. Boy was their leader surprised to hear that it had been found - almost exactly one year later! The Leech Lake team will be here the end of this month for this year's competition, a show not to be missed!
