how can it be collectable if you can get one pretty cheap ? just
because something can be collected does not make it a "collectors
item".
If I collect cigar butts does that make them collectors items ? they
are just things I collect.
If you are confusing the word nostalgia with collectable then I don't
think a 20 year old radio is old enough to be nostalgia. what would you
call a radio from the 50's ????? ancient ???? when do you start calling
the ICF-2010 a collector item ?
I think a radio from the 70's that could truely be called a collectable
is the Barlow Wadley XCR-30, it was not a mass produced Japanese radio.
only about 20,000 XCR-30's made !!!
