[Elecraft] Unassembled K2 Vs Assembled Marketability

[edauer at aya.yale.edu]

I don't know the answer to the question though I agree with someone else who
said they are different commodities.  However, in the long run an unopened
kit may be worth a small fortune, like some unopened games and Barbie dolls
are.  The K2 deliveries are presently TBD . . . I have one (my fifth) on
order and no ESD is posted.  I assume it's a parts problem.  The K2 has
already had a number of small component modifications made as the
traditional parts have become unobtainable or uneconomic.  If it were
possible to place an order for the final five S/Ns, whenever that happens,
I'd pay for them today.  What say, Wayne -- will you make me that deal?

Hello all,
Does anyone have experience as far as which is more marketable?
Assembled or unassembled? Is there a price difference in posting either for
sale?
Thanks!
