More Amazing!
I forgot -- perhaps the buyer is going to sell the individual parts to
restorers.
In this case doubtful, but I have known Hams to do this and double their
money.

Because it is an auction
Merriam and company defines it as
a sale of property to the highest bidder
In this case 7+ folks have bid -- 52 times !!!!
WHY
The highest bidder perceives value thus bids accordingly
Perhaps money is no object
Perhaps they are bit by the nostalgia bug and just got to have it
Perhaps they have a radio museum and this is a rare find for them
Perhaps they surmise that very few exist, thus it might be an investment
for future sale
Perhaps they are a collector of Heath kits and I suspect an unbuilt SB-104
is a pretty rare bird
One of the TV personalities has bought several ham radios off e-bay at
very high prices - he can afford them !
You and I can not thus we are amazed and puzzled (;-)

On eBay there is an UNBUILT SB-104 up to $2025.00. Not even a 104A. Why?
