Well, you see them coming up on eBay all the time (although not without the RCX controller) - I just did a search and saw them selling in the $80 to $100 range. However, if you don't need it, you can sell the RCX by itself via eBay - they are fetching $40 to $60 which makes the rest of the set look pretty cheap. (2 motors, sensor, gears, axles and a *bunch* of other stuff for maybe $40) ---------------------------- Steve Baker ------------------------- HomeEmail: <[email protected]> WorkEmail: <[email protected]> HomePage : http://www.sjbaker.org Projects : http://plib.sf.net http://tuxaqfh.sf.net http://tuxkart.sf.net http://prettypoly.sf.net -----BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK----- GCS d-- s:+ a+ C++++$ UL+++$ P--- L++++$ E--- W+++ N o+ K? w--- !O M- V-- PS++ PE- Y-- PGP-- t+ 5 X R+++ tv b++ DI++ D G+ e++ h--(-) r+++ y++++ -----END GEEK CODE BLOCK-----
