[ICOM] Help w/ pricing for IC-706MkII

[Jerry K3BZ]

True, the prices things sell for on e-bay tend to be somewhat higher than
elsewhere, but isn't that the true definition of "what it's worth"... what
price it will sell for from a willing seller to a willing buyer, neither of
which is under any pressure? Heck, if  you can get $100 more on e-bay, why
wouldn't you want to? Of course, if what you want is to find a much-loved
radio a "good home", it might be worth it to take $100 less. Depends on what
you want, I suppose. If I'm buying, I've had very good luck here on the ICOM
reflector or one of the other reflectors where occasionally someone will
post a nice radio for sale.

73,  Jerry K3BZ
