New ThrustMaster Gear info
« on: June 07, 2000, 05:48:00 PM »
Since ThrustMaster gear seems to be worth its weight in gold on E-Bay, I thought you might all want to hear the word on development of the new HOTAS 2000 Project.

Here's the [news brief] on Dogfighter.

Cheers,

Oh.. that looks too cool.

I hadn't heard that TM gear was selling so well on E-bay.  Too bad I gave most of my stuff away.

Don't know how well it's selling per se, but the numbers posted as minimum acceptable bids seems high:

Check this [auction].  Egads!

At least the person knows how to market, though... sweet product shots.

They were at $435(US) for the set.  This seems high, but they sold for nearly that when new.

All I know is that mine went to a good home.
