I agree with Mike. Those are some pretty high prices for some
not-so-special radios. The only exception might be the TW-2000, which I had
my eye on myself but bailed out when the price got too high.

It's beginning to sound like sour grapes because someone wanted the
radio(s) more than you did.


It was in nice
shape and you probably won't see another one like it in a long while.


I think Mike's point is that sure, SOMEONE was willing to pay those prices,
but part of this newsgroup is educating people, isn't it?


Well, ok I'll be the first to ask. How is this group educating people
about prices of radios on Ebay.

So far all I've seen on this forum are a small group complaining
amongst themselves about how expensive radios are. Not a whole lot of
educating going on that I've read.

Because Ebay allows many buyers and sellers to come together and
determine an equitable price, I think it is a far better measure of the
true value of a radio than the frustrated few collectors on
rec.radio.shortwave. You and others may not like it, but Ebay is a
marketplace and it works to establish a true market price.
