Grant,
Man do I agree with you, One of the list members wanted a Pristine 
SX-100, I sent some pictures, he said fine, sent asking prices, shipped 
it to him. His comments were horrible, dirty, scratches  etc.
He sent it back and I refunded  his money. They expect a 40 to 50 year 
old piece to be mint like never used or touched.

The saying "not e*bay priced is a joke". The buyers set the price by 
bidding on the unit. I feel it is a fair pricing medium if you compare 
the items condition, pictures, description and above all the World wide 
exposure that that medium provides for both the seller and buyer.

The swap meets in So. CA have gone to hell in a basket for radios as 
they have become computer junk and ink sales. The radio bargains have 
been/are snapped up and show up on the auction sites do to the exposure.

That kind of sets the FAIR MARKET VALUE for a great percentage of items 
that show up there.

I have a great SX-101 Mk III A but I will not be insulted by my guess of 
the comment because it is a very nice unit and I want high market price 
for it or I will keep it.

SUPPLY and DEMAND still works in this world.
