[ForSale-Swap] Any vintage BC swap groups or sites?

[Al Gulseth]

Wow, I wasn't expecting to start such a firestorm. If you read my message 
carefully (note that I said "approximate value"), I think you will understand 
that I have absolutely _no idea_ what if any value these radios have, as 
vintage BC radios are not an area of interest to me. No, I'm not in this so 
I "can sell at top dollar", but rather I want to establish a fair price. 
(Don't get me started on the hamfest and estate sale "vultures" whose mission 
in life is to find naive sellers so they can buy radio gear for a pittance 
and resell it to naive buyers at a considerably higher price.)

And yes, I think I have an obligation to dad to get a fair price for his stuff 
as he may need that for care expenses in the future....

TNX/73, Al
