Hm. $100- now? Pure demand. I managed to grab one of those floats recently. Had to snipe at 24 seconds to go with a great deal of money to get it from under the 8 or so that was fighting tooth and nail for it. <br /> <br />The Barge is now 100- having 8 bids and listed approx 4 hours ago, the Float listed about the same time is already up to 11.00 It probably will pass 100- by midnight due to folks needing both kits together. With 6 days to go, this auction will be very profitable to the seller. <br /> <br />Retail I think was 55- for barge and 40- for float. 100- total. <br /> <br />Walthers should pay attention to these prices and make a second run of barges. I think they have NO idea the amount of pent up demand for these OOP items. <br /> <br />If I wanted to put my barge and float on the Ebay I can gaurantee you that both will go for at least 100- almost instantly as this set already has for the seller. There is just way too much pent up demand from a large group of people who have tried in the past to get at least one of the set or the other. <br /> <br />The prices will spiral on these items in the next few years. I predict there will be serious money spent as modelers sell barges and floats already assembled because they need to relocate or change the layout scene etc.
