I wish I could afford that kit! I always wondered if there was one made.
If I
did have that kit I think it would be hard for me to part with it.
I buy a lot of stuff on Ebay and have seen some things go for incredible prices. I see many sellers post a starting bid, so maybe you could do the same. If you don't get what you're asking, relist it at a lower starting price until you get some bites.
I was in Manhattan last week, and yeah!!! It was cold!!! (and I'm from Denver!) I hear it was even worse this last week with all the snow. Where in NY are you?
