Hello,
It's actually my first time posting on this site. I am selling a peter lynn 1200 and peter lynn 1600 arc kite. I received both directly from New
Zealand for a wind power kite project I was suppose to do with Rutgers University. Basically, the project never got the support and I have these two
unused kites sitting in my basement in the bag for over a year. I do not know much about power kites and I could not tell you the condition or
quality. I have never taken them out the bag. I would be willing to take them out the bag to snap some pics. I actually was doing a google search
to find out how much they are worth and came across this website. I figured I'd post and see if I get a response before I take them to a a power kite
shop and see what I can get. I reside in central nj and if anyone is interested they can swing by to take a look at them. I would rather do the
transaction that way anyway so someone doesn't feel like they're getting ripped off. Like I said, I know nothing about power kites. I was hoping to
be the project director in this study for electricity generation and kites but it never worked out.
I'm pasting a link of my work so people don't think this is fraudulent.

How much are you asking? $400 would probably be a good number to ask.
For anyone interested in this kite I recommend you read this thread:

Sorry,
I wasn't really sure how much they are worth so I was hoping someone would give me an offer for both. Like I said, it was suppose to be used for an
experimental project rather than recreation and the project never got the support. I'm hoping someone close can come take a look at them in person
and make sure it's what they want, because I wouldn't know what to look for. I was looking to get 375 for both together because I found online they
are being offered for mid 200's each. If I had to ship, the shipping would be separate.

If there isn't anybody local to check these out you should post some pictures.
If you show pictures of the wing tips most folks can tell if they are stock. Another showing the air inlets would be good . Then a general inspection
by yourself to be sure the fabric is fine. Check that the spars are OK / included.

Sounds good. I'll take them out the bags and take pics in a couple days.

I took some pics and have been getting some PM's concerning the kites. I opened up the bags and the kites are completely new. There are no handles
in the bags just two rods in each bag. I did not open the kites up completely because I had issues with getting the first one back in the bag. If
you have any other questions send me a PM. I can't post a pic because they are too large. Send me a PM if interested and send your email. I will
email them to you.

If someone is interested and concerned, seller should be local to me(New Brunswick, NJ).
I can take delivery in person and ship or bring to WBB in the fall.
