If you want it, then spend the money it will take to purchase, transport and then store in controlled environment.

Otherwise, quit whining. AND, Stay away from the scrap dumpsters.

so why not sell it for the scrap price of a few bucks rather than take revenge on enthusiasts?

I suppose the reasoning is that if there's no imminent threat to the hardware, we savvy cheapskate hams will wait until the seller has given up hope & then swoop in for the kill. :-)

I see an APR-4Y with multi-band converter and two APX-6. Totally cool stuff but desirable only due to historical value. I have an APR-4Y like that I got for free and an APX-6 I bought for $5 in the early 1980's.

 

I've seen surplus gear advertised on ebay from a local company listed with a fairly high opening bid and with the warning, "Will be scrapped if not sold this time." Okay, so why not sell it for the scrap price of a few bucks rather than take revenge on enthusiasts?
