One of the most popular sections of the GWTW Forum has long been the Swap Meet.  A great place to sell old, seldom flown kites or to get great deals on used (gently flown) kites.  Only registered users can see the Swap Meet section, let alone wheel and deal.  1000's (literally) of kites have changed hands thanks to the Swap Meet.

Thanks everybody.....I do think my top picture looks very much like UPNET CdC Stx.
So, I think I will write CdC Stx (unknown size) on that picture and CdC Dream on the other picture. These pictures were taken at the KTAI in the back parking lot at Buffalo Bills January 2005. I was there engaging in other activities and by pure accident bumped into the Trade Show. Thought I could go into the show. Boy, did I ever get surprised.

The STX is a 2.3. All the other sizes have slightly different graphics.
