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

[Des Pendergast]

Gentlemen, (and others)

Remember ebay is an auction site.  Therefore, if I am in the particular
circumstance to maybe bid higher than someone else, and I really want it
then I may pay more for it.  As someone else posted on this subject, it
is a case of 'what's it worth'.

Ebay all depends on who is watching an item at a particular time and how
much they have in their pocket when the hammer falls.  Also, it would
not be the first time I have seen an item relisted because a winning
bidder didn't pay!  The price that same article reaches after the second
auction may well be lower than the first.

So there it is.

Regards,

Des - VK3DMP.
