[Boatanchors] Amazing prices

[Curt]

Having started in this hobby in the early 60s, the old radios continue to 
interest me.  Several of various sorts have moved into the shack for awhile 
then moved on.  Lately I have been looking at Hallicrafters and National 
40s-50s receivers and the prices seem rather amazing.  I've seen several 
priced near $300!  Much of the gear is in poor condition, missing parts, 
inoperable.  Would have thought estate sales would have saturated the market 
and driven prices to few cents on the pound given the age of this equipment. 
Must be a lot more old folks like me interested than would have thought.
