Cheap Kites For Sale

Nothing Over $20!

So many kites for sale, so little time to fly... Have you ever bought anything on eBay? Like a vast kite shop of used kiting gear at bargain prices. Sometimes the childrens kites up for auction are in 'as new' condition, without the 'new' price tag.

In this price range, most of the kites are suitable for children...

Further down this page there are a few tips for picking a kite for your kid(s).

Here's the next 5 auctions to close...

Some Kite Selection Tips

For small children, stick with the smaller single-liners. For example Novelty kites of various kinds, and the ever-reliable Diamonds. Oh, and the small Sleds are super-convenient and almost indestructable!

Older kids with a bit more muscle will love the challenge of Sport kites such as 2-line Delta or Parafoils! If you let them have a go, that is ;-) The Parafoil stunters have the advantage of zero set-up time.

As for Chinese kites, you might even find some authentic hand painted silk-and-bamboo ones here! Something different to fly with friends.

Plus there's a whole lot of kite-related gear that doesn't actually fly. DVDs, pictures, ornaments, ear-ring studs, you name it. Maybe your kite-fanatic friend's birthday is coming up ;-)

Remember, keep your distance from power lines and other people, when flying any kind of kite.

Have fun!
