[Milsurplus] R-392 update and madness

[joldenburg2 at new.rr.com]

Yes some one foolish has overpaid. One thing thats intereting is when one is the seller of an item that gets caught up in a bid war there. I cleared some Drake Equpment out years ago here and it  all sold at 2 and 3 times the normal price. It was all very nice, mint, but  I hate using that term. Complete down to boxes, manuals &  accesoties.

As a seller you  wonder why they are paying so much and hope they are satified when they recieve it. I  found it nerve wracking but I guess that is just me not wanting someone to feel cheated.

The real oddity on this 392' is is appeared to be nice but not exceptionaly clean. One thing on a 392 is the chassis always looks great if the meter is still intact  as that darn thing is truly weather proof.

I agree, not worth $1000.00 IMO. what the heck  more power to the 
seller; I hope he get his money.  The price is what the market will bear 
today.  Capitalist system at it best.  A free people, freely spending 
cash, on what they want.

Also look at this madness on the "E" place 130369707728  over $1000 at this point.  Heck I'll give him my Stewart Warner for $800 and and provide free shipping!  As someone related to me...  Madness... Madness.  If the owner of the "pile o'" sees that he may change his mind!
