4.5V Samsonite Gears Motor Set is an extremely old and very rare LEGO set. We have not seen set 002-1 currently for sale online or in the hundreds of retail stores in good/new condition in over 1,926 days. Because of the rarity of this hard to find set the current estimated value of $196.95 might actually be much lower than the true value, assuming this set can be found for sale.Because 4.5V Samsonite Gears Motor Set is a very old set from 1965, finding it in a sealed and good condition might be difficult thus making the true value even that much higher.
