Default Big Ticket Kit

And you thought old pattern kits bought the big bucks, take a look at this one. Big $$$!

Now, there's a classic... It'll be fun/interesting to see what it finally catches. It does seem odd that all the bidders names are showing up as 'Private Listing' though. That's odd for something as innocuous as an RC kit, dontcha think?

It's probably the original poster running up the bids hoping someone will out bid him and he will make bundle.

Hobby Hawks have always been a big dollar kit, but it is possible the seller could be bumping up the bids (29 Bidders).
There was no need for the seller to make it a private listing as the bidders identities are protected during normal bidding.
By doing so the seller may have created the "illusion" of possible wrong doings. I thought a few people would remember
this one.

Here is something that cracked me up. Talk about a big ticket kits. [X(] Not even complete.

At first I thought he made a mistake then I saw this kit. Once again not all there.

Just when you think you seen it all...... this one takes the cake! At least this one appears to be complete. [&:]

http://www.ebay.com/itm/1-ULTRA-RARE...item20cfee3a6f

Now for the icing on the cake. $8.00 tops worth of electronics with a $280.00 plastic bag/paper label......[:'(]

Man I'm sure you heard my response to those prices. [X(] Those old servo kits must have some gold in them
that I don't know about. I've seen a old (working) Kraft mini servo go for a little over a hundred bucks and I'm
sure someone would buy the kits just to play around with them but not at those prices.
