Not really an eBay-related post, more of a "WTF" moment...  Tongue

Hammarlund BC 779B in Rare Collector Condition
Seldom Seen-Untouched Condition
Price:   US $1,295.00

Nearly $1300? I like Super Pro's, but...jeez....

Could this be a bit of California Dreaming?

Prices for SP-600's  in the past have varied between $200 and over $1200 depending on the "J##", condition, and scarceness. You shoot high the first time out and, if need be, you can work the price on down if it doesn't move.

I got the most incredible SP600 Jx 14 today at the ham fest. Perfect panel and perfect working condition.  Paid next to nothing for it.  Its nicer then this old 200

The sale has ended.  Admit it, Joe.  You bought it.

Yes! Yes, dammit, I admit it! And I'm gonna flip it for $2600!  Shocked





Actually, the SP 210 I bought for $200 about 6 years ago looks identical, right down to the "L.S.D. serial number" plate.
