EBay sites#0 source

I know that it might not be the best of form but I have a new computer and didn't back up my favorites list. I'm not having the greatest luck in getting the C/L kits and engines sites on my search at eBay.
Would someone please post them for me, it would be really appreciated.
Thanks,
Dennis

The sequence is Toys and Hobbies-Radio Control-Air-Airplane-CL and FF.
At Airplane you can also go to engine. If you don't put in a search item, you can cruse the whole category.

O.K. Dennis, here are some of my searches:

Air-General listing

Engines

Brodak kit

Sterling kit

Goldberg kit

Midwest kit

Top Flite kit

Model Airplane

Control line

Fox engine

Torpedo engine

Veco engine

Johnson engine

McCoy engine

Max engine

Super Tigre engine

Enya engine

Forster engine

Stunt kit

Propellers

Props

Model engine muffler

Glow plugs

Monokote

These searches all work well for me (in fact, too well, I have bought more engines, kits and other equipment than I can use in the next 175 years)(help!).

I was fortunate to get a few links sent to me that pretty much got me back up to speed. My sincere thanks to everyone. Dennis

T. Durrill--
I would be happy to help you; just put my name in your will for the engines.
Seriously, I tend to have the same problem... Too much ebay, not enough time....

easy peasy.....I usually start with a search for control line in the main search, then narrow it down to radio control/air.....

You will be surprised how many ontrol line items are NOT listed as being control line too....I oftet search Balsa Kits etc to see what turns up....not everyone knows what kit is what....especially if they are not into the hobby and selling on behalf etc......

Ooops, I just gave away my secret to finding good stuff.........disregard the above.

The trick to getting a good deal on ebay is to find an item no one else has found. And you are right some people have no idea what the item is that they are selling. I am keeping an eye on an old vintage model airplane kit that is about to sell for $2.00. The seller has no idea what this thing is and has it listed weard. Not may people have found the auction so its going to sell cheap. I am not planning to bid because I don't need another kit but on the other hand I could buy it and resell it.
