I can't speak for his shipping cost, but those are generally calculated by 
the eBay shipping calculator, not the seller.  The eBay shipping calculator 
ALWAYS puts out a very inflated shipping cost.  That is because eBay gets a 
10% commission on the shipping charge as well as the selling price.  I have 
lost a lot of sales because of their damn shipping calculator!

Maybe missed it, but it was not clearly stated that it had a power supply at 
all.He goes on and on about the history, but not the specifics of what is 
there now.He does not say it was converted to 120VAC
No interior shots either, which would make me think twice at $50, let alone 
$1000
The shipping is insane also! Shipping to my area was $70 !!!! I shipped a 
BC348 with an oversized external power supply and speaker enclosure for $35 
to his general area recently.
I always wonder about listings like this. He has been selling on Ebay since 
2000. You would think he would know better by now.

  I was going to bid, but, the front panel has been modified, the dynamotor 
was removed and a power supply in its place and there is a coax dangling out 
the back.
 Also there is no mount.

 He would not take $10.00.
