Good for you for not taking advantage of the guy. Nice score!

Is it taking advantage?

If the dude selling them kits didn't think to look at the internet in some attempt at valuation..

Well, that seems like a seller problem, NOT a buyer problem..

I dunno..

I DO know that I myself would be super thrilled to grab up another '62 Chrysler kit for ANYTHING less than $50 bones!

This is a topic each individual has to decide for himself. I doubt it's proper content for this forum.

As I try and ease myself out of the hobby my oldest son just keeps me in it.

This was Christmas this year.

Not sure, but I think those stickers were on kits sold through Kay-Bee or Toy-R-Us for end-cap special sales. Maybe Christmas or something?

[ewetwo]

This arrived today. Want to make a plain Galaxie. And it’s white plastic and not blue or yellow. ?

[kelson]

Stopped at the Hobbyshop for their 20% off sale.?

Don't often see these cases so i grabbed a few.

[Mr mopar]
