Is there anyone out there looking to sell thier CD (scorpion) stuff?? I'm particularly interested in scorpion bases, the long 12" tubes, some 6" tubes, and any joints. I have plenty of flex spine and track (rail) and would even trade rail or spine (the nice yellow stuff) for some structure parts.

I have a Scorpion that I am never going to use again. But if I do sell it, it would be sold whole. Not in parts. If you need parts, go to CD's website. I think you can buy parts there.

I've been to their website and while you can get alot of stuff, the certain things I am looking for they don't sell online. I will gladly take that whole scorpion off your hands, i am located in the US. Just name a price.

Well thats kinda the thing. I don't know how much these go for. And I'm not sure I can sell it. If anyone would like to share how much used scorpions go for, I would love it.

My scorpion have been build once. was up for a year. In a house with pets (Dogs and cats). The reason I took it down was I could not get it running. Pet hair kept getting in the cars. And they never made the full track exept for about a 2 weeks in which I had spent like 4 hours taking all the cars apart, and cleaning them. And I had to wash them, becouse the silicone spray I put on them made the hair stick worse.

you know, that really turns me off of buying it, however, I still would because I have a new train. All I really need badly is the bases and support structure, so as long as they are intact I could just wash the pet hair off 'em! (lol). Seriously, a new scorpion cost about $200. At Ebay auction they would go as high as 175 used. If you'd like to name a fair price I would still buy it off you. Get a second opinion of course...any help here??

It's funny that you said that about the silicone spray, I live in a house with 2cats and the silicone made the hair stick real bad to the lift spring on my phoenix.

Help needed here! Does anyone even check this forum?? Please, if you know coaster Dynamics stuff and are familiar with thier prices, give us a second opinion on the value of a used Scorpion set.

I'd estimate 60% of the new price if in excellent condition, 40-60% otherwise.
