Sears Clearance still have 4561???  I want at least 2 more!!!  There are
none on their outlet site, but if Brampton has some, I will definitly want 2!

If anyone can confirm/deny availability at Sears clearance, it'd be appreciated!

Stay safe

(...) No, but I'd guess around...$70 to $75 CAD? Overpriced. I'd pay $30-40 for it, tops--that's when I can get a full 4561 with track, motor, speedreg, and wheelsets for $45 at Sears Clearance. S@H seems to think Canadian dollars scale 1:1.55 (...) (25 years ago, 21-Feb-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
