Nope. Haven't heard.

This sealed box of Centuri Akela Cub Scout kits has been listed for several weeks now with no bids. Box looks pretty much mint. Not a bad price for parts to make 8 rockets, even by today’s prices.

Not my listing nor do I know the lister.

Well, this is far from a 'deal', but interesting. A Centuri Space: 1999 Eagle set still sealed in shrink wrap. I think this is one of the highest prices paid for a Centuri starter set that I have seen on ebay. Final price was $585.

This set, in any condition, does not come up often but it went for even more than I thought it would. Starting price was $250.

Back in the 1980's I had the choice of the 1999 Eagle Starter Set or the Evel Knievel Sky Cycle. I chose the Sky Cycle.

The 1999 Eagle was a much better set.
The Sky Cycle was only marginally better than the full-scale IDIOT-Cycle.
At least the model does not "Yank the Leever" prematurely.

Okie doke, maybe, probably not, LOL.
 

Steve-
That thing looks like a bigg-tyme piece of junk.

Local pickup only. I’m surprised the seller is brave (or audacious) enough to actually HAND that to someone.

Let's be careful and not get this thread (about actual 'good' things on ebay) confused with the 'Ebay Silliness' thread. ;) :)

Earl,

Right you are. Sorry about that!
