Vortex1987 Posted December 9 Share Posted December 9 Hello everyone. As you may know, I created a thread on here 4 years ago that i believe was a catalyst to get the park to sell those track slices of Vortex. And thank you again IceePirate for going out of your way to help me acquire my piece. However, life has hit me in an unexpected way and I need help. I have listed my Vortex piece for sale on ebay. I need the money to help my family get through tough times and I don't know what else to do. I'd rather sell it to someone on here who would cherish it as much as I do than to a random person. As much as I cherish this piece of history, my family comes first and I don't know what else to do. Thank you KICentral for helping me achieve my piece of Vortex. I need your help now again. My piece is listed here: RARE - Kings Island Vortex Track Slice | eBay Thank you KIC. And thank you IceePirate. I need your all's help now more than ever. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Nemo Posted December 10 Share Posted December 10 Best of luck! Hope all is taken care of. Make sure to post this on the Kings Island Season Passholders group on FB for a wider audience. I’m sure there’s someone that would jump at this kind of thing. Especially before the holidays! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I unfortunately dont have a facebook at all. Can someone on here post it there? And the Kings Island Vortex fans page? Its mostly just financial issues and I need to help my family. Someone has to jump at it... I hope so......... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnjniehaus Posted December 10 Share Posted December 10 I think someone will jump on it. Heck I don't have a ton of money but I'd take it for about $1k however I think you can get more from someone who isn't in college and saving up for a car (yes that's me). I personally think it's worth all of the $2k you're asking for it I just know that I can't pay you what it's worth at this time. I'm really sorry to hear you are going through a really hard time financially especially with it being the holiday season. I hope you get a good amount for it because I know it's painful to part with something rare that you were able to acquire because you financially need to do so. I'm very blessed to have a racer z-bar I won at an ACE auction and I know it would so hard to have to part with something like that. Hope you and your family can get through this difficult time and I feel confident that you will find an interested buyer 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My family comes first. Id much rather sell it to someone here because KIC is the reason I even have it at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PKIDelirium Posted December 12 Share Posted December 12 Yours is a steal compared to the other two on eBay right now. There's one for 10k, and one for a whopping ONE HUNDRED thousand, but hey, that 100k gets you free shipping! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vortex1987 Posted December 12 Author Share Posted December 12 It has been sold. I priced it logically, but enough to help my family. I'm not THAT crazy. LOL. I did it to help my family in time of need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DonHelbig Posted Wednesday at 07:23 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 07:23 PM I know someone with a Son of Beast track piece that might be willing to move it, if the price is right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have taken the money from that and gave it to my mom to help her out. She needed it. KIC is an amazing group of people and Im thankful you all jumped in and helped me. Thank you KIC.
