Post by: Destructavator on December 19, 2008, 04:19:07 pm
Anyone here independently wealthy?

They run at about ~$42 million United States Dollars or so which includes shipping and handling to a major airport, although transportation from the airport may result in additional costs to the buyer, as well as additional costs under NASA's terms and conditions.*  For parents, I'm sure they would make one heck of a whopper stocking stuffer for the holidays.

*Main Engines not included.  Availability limited to stock on hand.  Product may not be disassembled for transportation or storage.  Product must remain in indoor, climate-controlled display environment.  Void where prohibited by law.  Please contact seller for further and complete terms and conditions.

Do they combine shipping for multiple purchases?

ROFL!


BTAxis, If I happen to win the lottery, I'll keep it in mind for my holiday shopping gift list and see if I can send one your way, seeing that you're interested.  The problem I might have is finding a way to get the thing gift-wrapped in time - I'd have to check on that.

42 million for a 1970 design... thats a rip off.. Richard Branson is building ships that can fly and go to space for 1/10th the cost.... The space shuttle is a piece of crap... its the ford pinto of space travel... if anyone actually does buy them they dont deserve to have that kind of money.. I can build a nice space ship for about 8 million.. Anyone want to go satellite salvaging? DOD pays half the price of the satellite if you fix it.. most of them are in the billions of dollars... anyone want a 3 billion dollar payday?
