Guy wants $165 for boxed set, used, appears to be in good condition. Seems a bit steep, but not sure.

Looks like the set sold, I can no longer find it on Ebay. Problem solved. The link above is for shells.

Well, as Frank Fritz would say, I love it, but not at $165. I'd have to sell off some stuffs to do this in good conscience, and then I'd probably have a bad case of Seller's Regret.

165 is too high.

Personally I'm not going to bother buying an original aerotrain. Bowser still has all the shells and many of the parts for sale, I already have the end car shell, so my friend and I are planning to build one from parts and modify a surplus athearn sw7 mechanism to power it. Might end up being cheaper.

I have plenty of Aero trains; one is the Con Cor Union Pacific "City of Las Vegas", the other one is a Varney "PRR", and I have two Bowser shells for it, NY Central, and Rock Island.
