Default Estes #2144 - Darth Vader's Tie FIghter

Somehow, I'm not really sure how since I don't care much for them, I wound up with a lot of the Star Wars merchandise rockets. Darth Vader's Tie Fighter is one of them. For the hypothetical person who does not know, it is a fantasy scale of the famous ship from the movie franchise. To fly, though, the kid adds a "probe" that gives some stability. Attempted flight without the probe would likely be lots of fun but not very safe or effective. The kit is new and unopened, though I'm not sure what that "means" with these boxed kits.

I checked around on Ebay and asking $40, a bit less than the average.

This kit is offered for sale in an effort to liquidate my collection of kits and is being offered via cross postings on The Rocketry Forum and Ye Olde Rocket Forum. The price indicated is what I have determined by looking for evidence of similar sales but, admittedly, might reflect a poor judgement on my part. I'm just doing the best that I can. The price does NOT include shipping. Interested persons are invited to contact me via PM and I will calculate the shipping. Payment is expected by means of PayPal, Zelle or Venmo. My intention is to make shipments twice per week after confirming receipt of funds. I will try to give the most accurate descriptions I am able to provide and will happily answer any specific questions either by PM or within the post thread.

I used to tell Mom, "...I want to fly rockets when I grow up!"

She said, "Make up your mind, you can't do both!"
