A buyer for one item I sold on ebay - the original manual for an R-388, I think it was - told me that he knew of a couple guys who discovered a warehouse full of WWII vintage radio equipment that was going to be sold off or destroyed.  But they figured that the stuff they already had would be worth more if there was less of it, so they let it all be scrapped.

So I guess you have a half dozen BC-611's and a warehouse with 200 of them NIB is discovered, you'd rather they be scrapped than have the value of yours go down when the market gets flooded.  Funny, the way some people think.

Me, I'd rather buy them for $1 each and give them away than let them be scrapped.
