Where'd you steal it from? Might be able to just phone them up and ask.

Worth of such things is rather measured in calories - from heat released when set on fire
Seriously though,
Do you think it can still hold pressure? If it can hold 25PSI it would make a nice rigid wing.
Can you also describe the accessories please, images are kind of foggy.

1970 called and wants its camera back.
A 9 year old kite, with a depower system that didn’t catch on, though some liked it for drift launching, I believe.
Be interesting to know if the valves still hold.
Donate it to a kite school, or someone who makes cushions.

Burn the bar and forget about it, it is the worst bar I've ever used.
Otherwise I don't know what is the size of the kite, but I don't think you can ask for more than 350-400USD for both the kite and bar. Way too old, but maybe a beginner may want to buy it cheap to learn on it.
Btw. I am using a 2010 Convert which still flies and the valves and bladder are in perfect shape, so if this one was stored properly i am sure it will fly well.

The qr red ball & pin are worth more than the whole package to someone building his own custom bar...

Did you dig up a time capsule or something?

i am still flying a 10m 2010 switchblade, i think it has very good lowend and lots of power. The bar sucks,this is true. i've been trying to fly the kite with trimlite and ocean rodeo bars but it doesnt seem to work, apparently, it has to be a high V bar.

I dug out an old Crossbow 2010 a couple of years back and it terrified me. Was delighted to get rid. I agree about it having lots of power, was like holding a tiger by the tale. I’d just come of a Rebel 2016 and tried it for a bit of fun...
