The local hobby store has F25s for about $8.50 which I think is about
retail.  I think you can do a bit better than that. If you are interested
in  a Phoenix try calling

Walt Meeks (owner)
Rocketman Hobbies
8839 N Knoxville
Peoria, IL  61615
(309) 691-3103

He seems to have about the best prices around on rocket stuff and, the
last time I ordered something from him, he gave me an extra 10% disc
for being a NAR member.  Plus, he charges no shipping.

I don't know what kind of price he would have on the Phoenix.  It retails
for $189, but it seems like discounters are selling it for ~$139. This
includes the reloadable motor casing which retails for ~$50.  I  believe
that there is a version of the Phoenix which is also available without
the reloadable motor casing, but don't know if Walt will know about it
yet.

If you want to call AeroTech for a catalog or more info on the
Phoenix  their number is (800) 752-8018.  If you want more detailed
info send me e-mail.
