I'm with you Ken, it doesn't seem realistic for the overall content -
though it would be a good start for someone. Definitely more of a 'user' vs
'collector' look to it. Command set gear seldom, if ever brings what nice
ARC-5 or ARA/ATA gear brings as it's much more plentiful and lacks the nice
black wrinkle finish in most cases.

True, some pieces by themselves could bring decent money, but to imply the
overall value is based on that leaves out the time factor: the time the
seller would have into splitting up, listing, packing and shipping each
item individually. IMO you'd need to sell each connector, mount, base, etc
separately to come close to the asking price. You might get it, but when
you figure in your time, how much are you really gaining? As well, some
attraction is lost when it becomes just another dynamotor, just another
modulator, and so on.

I'd guess a a more realistic price to be a little less than half - if he's
lucky.
