Default Thinning the herd-Lots of great kits for sale.

Hello all YORF members.
I have come to the realization that my pile of collectible kits is far too large for me to build anytime in the near future, so I will be putting a bunch of them up for sale on eBay.

The following kits will be going up for sale within a day or two, I will post when available.

The "gem" of the collection at this time that will be up for sale is an OPENED but Complete original Enerjet Nike Smoke kit. The last one that was on eBay in THIS condition sold for over $375.00; my reserve will be more than $100 below that.

Semroc Saturn 1B kit #00014
Semroc Hawk Boost Glider kit #00013
Semroc X-21 Boost Glider kit #00015
Semroc Defender
Semroc Nighthawk X-Kit
Semroc SLS Hustler kit

Hawk's Hobby Super Orbital Transport Kit #065; this one has an orbiter BT-55 based and is large enough for micro R/C electronics in the glider.

PDR (Pimp Daddy Rocketry) Orbital Transport kit (K-42 clone with laser cut fin/wing stock)

Estes K-41/1241 Mercury Redstone
Estes K-37/1237 Astron Scrambler
Estes K-38/1238 Astron Avenger
Estes F-61 Starfighter (futuristic)
Estes Skytracer.(futuristic)
Estes Manta Bomber (futuristic)

All kits but the Enerjet Nike Smoke are sealed, never-opened, with hang-tags.
All will have what I feel is very reasonable reserve pricing.
More may be put for sale as I go through my collection and select others that I feel am able to let go of.

I also have a one-off prototype Enerjet Athena "kit" from Carl at Semroc; he sent the "kit of parts" to me minus the wraps for helping him out with some parts identification details for the original. It has no instructions (downloadable) or wraps (the standard 1/100 Centuri Saturn 1B wraps were used in the original). My understanding from Carl was he decided to NOT produce the Athena due to not being able to find a source for the plastic wraps.
I really want to actually keep that one but would entertain UNREASONABLY HIGH offers via PM here on YORF. I know I will never build that one. In case anyone wonders what I consider UNREASONABLY HIGH, it is considerably more than what an original boxed Centuri Enerjet Athena goes for.

My ID to search under is ghrockets.

Does Ebay still charge you a fee when you put a reserve on your auction?

Not sure; I have not sold anything on eBay in YEARS....the hoard got too big and gotta thin it.

Prior to them being listed on eBay later tonight, I will entertain offers via PM on any of the above listed kits.

All kits now listed on eBay, with option to end auction early as they are also available for 'local' sale.
:^)
YORF members can PM me with offers for any of the items.
The X-21, Hawk and Super Orbital Transport have been sold (within 15min of listing), all rest still available.
