Kites and Buggy Stuff

Now that the bug has been sold, I have the rest to clear out, so:

Apex II - 10m, has previous owner repair, flys fine, super rare
Apex II - 7.5m, in great condition, I'd say 9/10
Apex II - 5.0m, professional repair, cant find it unless its pointed out, flys great 8.5/10

Kites come with bags, all like new, bars (3) + (1) brand new line set, all for $1000, and I'll throw in a Dakine Nitrous
board-short harness and Dakine spreader bar, shipping and Paypal at buyers expense.

Also I have 3 Bigfoot (Nanco) tires mounted on PL std. wheels, so Bigfoot lights, one wheel is missing 1 bearing (20mm) and the spacer, the other two are complete (12mm).

PL Bigfoot Front End
PL Kinked Downtube
PL Comp XR Buggy seat
PL siderail pads

$500 for tires and buggy stuff, I'll back out $20 for the missing bearing, so $480 for all, again shipping and Paypal at buyers expense,

I dont want to part this out yet, gives someone a great opportunity to purchase sets of now non available gear, anyways let me know, pickup in the greater Monterey, Ca. is also available (or even preferred :-) Thanks for looking.

Note the discoloration on the downtube pic is aluminum tape I applied to keep the sand out.

So here is what is for sale:

Unfortunately Ebay or facebook is probably your best bet. There's only five or ten of us in here and that includes the two dogs and the neighbors gerbil. Forums died when social media took over so there just isn't anyone here for the most part. You'll probably get more exposure on the other sites. Maybe someday forums will see a resurgence.

I guess pinball would have been a better hobby to invest in. Not many people left kiting on land. I paid $200 Canadian for a MINT ApexII 7.5 almost 5 years back. I might take the 5m if you do decide to "give" it away.:dunno:

I really miss forums (FlexiFoil, RaceKites, GWTW, Silverfish, etc.). They were such great repositories of information and culture and they are all but gone. I'm not on FB or IG so I'm really out of touch. often wonder what I'll do with my kites if I sell them. Just looked at ebay, craigslist, etc. and barely a foil to be seen, let alone one that is reputable. Remember back in the day when you could build a collection by selling and buying up?? Man, how times have changed.

I chose not to switch over to facebook on princible.
Because I have no friends

I don't like to follow the crowds or do things that are common or popular. Which is why I'm here.

There is however a thriving marketplace run by Popeyethewelder with new stuff being bought and sold daily. Lots of interesting things come up. While I think it's more European based, it might be worth a look.

I resemble that remark

And I'm extremely grateful for it every single day

PS It looks like all seven of us showed up for this thread..... that's pretty good,,,, nice job everyone

I probably should have known better. The deals (mostly Flysurfer foils) were too good to be true!
