The way I see it is that "Greed" runs capitalism or should I say greedy
people run the capitalistic system, the rest of us less greedy people
just help the real greedy fulfill there needs and bank accounts and if
we are lucky will have enough left to buy a Hallicrafters at above junk
price.
I really don't think fair market value applies to anything that is
really just "junk" that people seem to want to place real value on and
call "Collectable" or "bought for an Investment".
Now anyone out there have an SX-88 that they will sell at scrap metal
prices? Now I need to find out what the price of scrap metal is so I
can be prepared for all the email I will get.
