Hi Ken, I can't say the same thing about R-390A parts this time of year. I 
almost fell out of my chair when an R-390A engraved front panel with handles and 
meters recently sold on eBay for $342.77.  The seller  said the finish had 
scratches in it, not a repaint. Also an I.F. module with 3TF7 just sold for 
$224.25.  I am glad people are getting good prices on other radios this time of 
year but I would say it is best to hold off for now on R-390A parts unless 
someone is desperate. 73 Todd Roberts WD4NGG.
