Default Built models for sale.

Howdy

I wanted post that I have a selection of built models for sale on eBay under the name cafe_66

Up for sale are the following

VF-261 verns fantasy

Citation Patriot colone

Estes renegade

Little Joe II

Semroc Aerobee 150

Merc Redstone.

All built never flown. Prices are all very good. You can also buy directly from me if you don't want to go through eBay. Prices are firm.

Thanks for looking Jon

Jon-
Your models for sale look great and I understand your 'firm' pricing is based on your quality work and what you think they are worth.
I however think you will be sadly disappointed in the amount of offers you are going to get.
Unlike R/C aircraft and HPR rockets, built model rockets rarely if ever get anywhere near the $$ that unbuilt kits get.
For example, a couple months ago I sold an OPENED but complete original Enerjet Nike Smoke kit on ebay for around $250.00; if it would have been sealed it would have fetched between $350 and $400; if built to MUSEUM quality I doubt it would have sold for half the $250 I got.
Not meaning to 'rain on your parade' because they do look great, just be prepared for few if any sales at your pricing.

Default built

Hi GH

How are you? Yes I can agree with you on numerous points you have there. I may even stop building projects to sell. I do have some unbuild coming up for sale but they are not vintage kits.

I'd love to buy some built cold power stuff if you have it. Even launch equipment.
