Default Before I get myself killed / Ebay trainers

Hello all-

I accidentally picked up 2 kites off ebay (I didn't think I would win either kite, cause the price was 2 low. I got both). Luckily, kitemare and this site have convinced me that to try and figure it out myself is suicide. I am going to keep my big kites in the attic for now, and get a trainer of some sort and some lessons.

I don't really have a lot of $$ to invest right now, and I was looking at ebay and craigslist for used/cheap trainers. I see 2 options. One is a 3 meter 'POWERFOIL' on ebay I can't find a single reference to elseware, and the other is a friendly guy on craigslist that will sell me a 2 meter kite and a lesson for $125.

Any thoughts? Is 2 meters to small to really get experience? Anybody up in Tarpon Springs that gives lessons? The friendly craigslist guy is all the way in Sarasota/Venice.

Thanks-
