That may be what happened to me also. For years I've been telling the neighborhood waifs that my hair was "shot off in the war."

Yeah, rugged. Looks like he forgot he had it stored on the garage floor and backed over it with the truck. Still, probably worth 9.99 for the parts and old plans, and I see he has an initial bid.

These Bomarcs, and especially the Citation Bomarcs, do fetch a good chunk of change when they appear on eBay, but I don’t think I have ever seen one push these numbers before.

I guess in this case it comes down to at least two people who really, really, really want it. But otherwise yes, I agree: Am I missing something...?

that's the problem with a bidding war.

I could make a case, maybe, for the Citation Bomarc, but the later regular bagged kit? eh, not so much.

Somebody has lost their $#&@ mind.
I wouldn't pay that much for a sealed mint Citation Bomarc with proper glide recovery, let alone a bagged chute recovery DUD.
