A close relative of mine is going to the US in a few weeks. I am therefore interested in knowing some sort of 'kite store price' for: - a 6' Flexifoil (Stacker and/or Pro Speed 6) - a Rev II If there is a significant price advantage I might decide to buy them from the US. If nothing else, I'll get around the 25ales tax we have in Sweden... BTW, if anyone knows about kite stores in Portland, Oregon I would like to hear about them. Thanks! /Chris -- _______________________________________________________________________________ Christer Carlsson | Email: cc@sics.se = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = Date: Wed, 21 Sep 1994 05:06:00 -1000 From: allen.edwards@spacebbs.com (Allen Edwards) Message-Id: <6.7336.1615.0NAEABB5@spacebbs.com> Organization: Space BBS - 15 node PCBoard - FTP/TELNET/GOPHER - (415-323-4193) Subject: Price on kites in the US? -> BTW, if anyone knows about kite stores in Portland, Oregon -> I would like to hear about them. There are large numbers of kite stores along the Oregon coast. If you get out to any of the beaches you will enjoy the kite flying there. The stores are competitive and you should find good prices.

Paint The Sky kites in portland is a good kite store. There are also some excelent kite stores on the Oregon coast (such as Seaside) One hour away from Portland. I recomend Kites Northwest (located in the mall by the carosell (sp)). The last time we got a 6 foot flexi it was about $110.00.
