GKPI Factory Outlet

If you have ever visited a real factory outlet store, then you know what this page is all about. Bargains!

We have product over-runs at marked-down prices, discounted factory seconds, and special values on demo kites or slightly damaged and repaired returns. We also have some special purchases listed for you. In each case, we'll explain what the status is of products we offer.

A note to AKA members: The Association policy is that you get a 10% discount off the regular list price of a purchase, or the sale price -- whichever is lower. Most Factory promotions are for more than 10% off. When that is the case, we unfortunately cannot give you both the AKA discount and the Factory discount..

Octopus

45 Foot Octopus: This great looking kite was special ordered and came in with the colors slightly wrong for what out client wanted. We got him the right kite. And now we have this “wrong” one.

As you can see, he is black with green trim. And he’s been test flown already. List price is $1400, but we’ll put him in your back for 25% less -- $1050.

Rainbow 252 and Tail: A box showed up here in the post this week with lots of writing on it. Turns out it was a parcel shipped to Lithuania four months ago. The customer never received it and demanded a refund. And we decided the package was lost forever.

Sorry to disappoint the customer – but happy to have the box back!

So we now have a rainbow Sutton 252, a matching 100 foot streamer with black outline, a wonder bag, and 500 feet of Spectron flying line. The total came to $1280.

What a nightmare!

But lets cut our losses and be glad to get the kite back. And let’s discount the collection by $200, and be happy to have only lost the cost to ship it overseas and back. Just $1080 and this great kite and tail is yours!!

The kite has several repairs to the tail (which are not particularly visible once it is off the ground). And it is a bit dusty. But as you can see, colors are bright

Spirit

Spirit Flier

Here is an amazing kite for general flying or special events like memorial flies or night shows.

Made by Martin Lester of England, the Spirit dances in the breeze with long, 20 foot extremities trailing behind. He (or she) definitely makes an impression.

Priced at $350. each Spirit is imported from England. They are a bit hard to get. But we have several in stock.

Just in from Hank Manseau: Spirit is probably the best-flying inflatable I have ever had the pleasure of flying. I typically fly it on 80# line and it is an incredibly graceful and efficient kite with a very good lift to drag ratio. I find that it flies extremely well from 7-8 mph to 20 mph. Beyond that range it becomes unstable. The bottom line is... this is a GREAT kite!

Basket on a Stick!

Basket on a Stick: We've taken the traditional 7.5 inch spinning basket and attached it to a 2 foot semi-rigid plastic rod. You also get a set of 2 foot streamers.

This is normally a $7 retail item. But as an introductory special, we'll offer packages of ten for 30% off. That's $4.90 each!!

Wave them in a parades, mark off your kite-camp perimeter, or give them to the kids and have them run around until they are worn out! At that price, you could even afford to buy a batch and sell them in your kite camp!!

Gom-Kaku: Here's a kick-butt cool rokkaku that is perfect for fighting or for fun.

Peter Lynn Mini Crabs: I’ve just received another shipment of smaller Crab Kites from New Zealand. These are great looking inflatables and with a moderate pull for a smaller kite. Each one is about 8 feet across.

The shipment I have are red. And I don’t expect to get more soon, so grab one up if you like them!!

The exchange rate with New Zealand (and everywhere else) is lousy right now. But we can put a Crab on your line for $450.

Crab Kite

Airforms and Streamers!

We're sorting our shipments from the last two crazy months and have a few "orphans" that need a home.

Defective Crown: Why would you want to buy a defective kite?? Well, mostly because it isn’t completely defective. The black fabric along the leading edge has been tearing under stress and we think it needs to be replaced. But the rest of the piece seems just fine.

Colors are red/gold/white/red/green – a combination we call the Chinese Rainbow. (Click here to see a similar piece in the same colors).

This would be an interesting winter project for a kiter with modest sewing experience.

List price on a full-size Crown is $1100. But we’ll sell this one for $500. And if you order it, look it over, and decide the deal isn’t right for any reason, we’ll absolutely take it back.
