[Motorola] price suggestions on used equipment needed

[Alex Chadis]

Panik isn't the best list to go buy.  However, from what I hear, he always
sells a quality product that if you have a problem with he will back.
This comes with a price, and usually it's worth it.  Again, this is what I
hear.

Interms of HT1000's, they go for around $350 for a VHF, $300 for UHF.
Depends on condition and accessories.  MT1000's expect to go for around
$200-$225 each.  HT600's much lower than that, maybe $75-$120ish.  Again,
the above is largly based on how many accessories, condition, feature sets
of the radios.

Couple of ebay tips.  Don't use a reserve, start the auction at what you
want to get for it.  Also, buy-it-now prices are good, if you base it what
the value of the radio is at.  If it's a popular item that people look
for, you'll get a number of bids, espically if you start the price low.

Good Luck,

Alex
