Fortin's site is a beginning. The number of kits I am trying to sell (for someone else BTW) is daunting. I have to start someplace and the number of sales so far tells me I can't be too far off.

Gordy, You asked for opinions on whether or not people thought prices might be out of line. GH and MoJo gave their opinions. I actually concur and refer to MoJo's explanation as to why. The market from back when Gerry created that database has changed. For the most part model rocket kits don't bring as much as they did back then. I'm happy the kits are selling for the person you're doing this for. You're correct, when unsure of pricing Gerry's list is a great place to start. While you've sold many kits you have a number of kits listed that have been up there for a number of weeks. You could use that as an indicator as to which kits are overpriced and may need a price reduction in order to move them.

I only gave an opinion based on what I personally have seen LATELY. Not to mention you ASKED if we saw something out of line.
Fortin's database is woefully out of date. Some of his prices are low but most are high. That said, most of your prices are spot on...the ones I saw as not, I commented on.

Guys, I'm sorry, I am having a bad time of it.
I know it's been said about other people but I am saying it about myself. I'm a bit "out of adjustment" with my current meds. They make me easily set off.

Sorry to hear that, Gordy.
Seemed a bit out of character for you. Get well !

I just added a new category, Centuri kits.
Not all show a quantity just so nobody can purchase yet. I need a feel for a reasonable price on those. Ebay is little to no help. The show a Black Widow with a "Buy It Now" price of $144.00. That seems a bit much. I need feedback, please. I just posted the kits without a quantity. That makes it show "This Item Is Out Of Stock" until I get an idea of a better price. For now the prices shown on "Out of Stock" is arbitrary...I had to put something down to get the item to post.

$144 on a Black Widow in the last packaging from Centuri seems outrageous to me.
$90-$100 does not...that kit is not really that rare either, but I think you could get $100.

I always wanted a Centuri Black Widow and even tried to clone one about 1962 or so. I thought I could keep this one but for $100.00 I can say goodbye.
