Any NE Ohio posters (or lurkers) hear whatup with Great Lakes Hobbies?
Their website has essentially said the same thing for the past several
months (that they're moving), and a fellow club member stopped by
their "new place" today, and it's still empty.  Phone has not been
"forwarded" to a new number, but rather, disconnected.  Email doesn't
bounce, but it's not replied to, either.

Original sign at the new location was still up too.  Some sort of a
women's gym or something with the windows painted over.

Must've been some serious spandex going on in there at one time...

At our club meeting on Sunday, this topic came up.  Somebody said that he
may have some serious health issues.

Tod,

I'm not from the NE, but I can give you some info on Great Lakes
Hobbies.  They've been selling a lot of old rockets on eBay as of late
under the name glhobbies.  They have a number of items up now as a
matter of fact.  This contact info is in their item descriptions:

This kit is offered by Great Lakes Hobbies. If you have any questions
please e-mail us at glhinfo@aol.com or call 440-257-3906.

it sounded almost as if they are going out of business, maybe that's why
they're selling stuff on eBay, to get rid of their remaining stock?
