Sold Roto Rocket RR-2 - Rotating Space Station

[JAL3]

For some reason, I developed an interest in this company. As best I can tell, they only ever produced 3 different models and the only difference between the first two was the number of stages. In any event, they fascinated me. I have not built one so I cannot attest to the quality but they seem well made. This is a two stager. The upper stage deploys a space station that recovers by helicopter rotation. Both stages take 18mm power. The booster tumbles, the sustainer has a chute and the payload auto-rotates. It is new and unopened.

I am asking $125


This kit is offered for sale in an effort to liquidate my collection of kits and is being offered via cross postings on The Rocketry Forum and Ye Olde Rocket Forum. The price indicated is what I have determined by looking for evidence of similar sales but, admittedly, might reflect a poor judgement on my part. I'm just doing the best that I can. The price does NOT include shipping. Interested persons are invited to contact me via PM and I will calculate the shipping. Payment is expected by means of PayPal, Zelle or Venmo. My intention is to make shipments twice per week after confirming receipt of funds. I will try to give the most accurate descriptions I am able to provide and will happily answer any specific questions either by PM or within the post thread.

I'm trying to be fair and honor a "first come, first serve" precedence when dealing with inquiries. That invovles juggling messages I see while at work at the hospital coming from both TRF and YORF. That started out easy but got more complicated as there were more and more rockets listed. I made some mistakes and for that I am sorry.

I also don't mind holding rockets as you wait for more to become available. This does help with shipping costs and nobody has been more horrified than I over the current postal rates. That said, I am going to have to change one thing. I am only going to set aside "sold" rockets. I tried it the other way and a few times I was left in the lurch when others were interested in a rocket. That was only a mild annoyance. What I cannot tolerate is the mistakes that I made in selling something that had been promised. With my faulty memory and hectic schedule, the only way to prevent this when so many rockets are up for sale (with hundreds more to come) is to strictly segregate the sold stuff from the unsold stuff. A hold with an intent to buy now gets 24 hours, barring exigent circumstances, after that, it's back on the market.

Still have this kit? One sold recently on Ebay for $100 so if you were to match that price, I'd be very receptive. I've purchased a few kits from you before if that helps with your decision. Appreciate any consideration.

I'm sorry it has taken so long for me to get back to you. I got sent to the border in an area without much infrastructure. I hope to be back in San Antonio by Monday night.

The kit has not sold and I am willing to entertain you offer. Can you send me a PM with your real name and shipping info and I'll try to get things figured up when I get back and when SHE WHO MUST BE OBEYED runs out of things that I have to do immediately. My records all go by the name on the mailing label as opposed to TRF and YORF handles and Alzheirmer's has been plaguing me since 1965 or so.
