I talked to Rick Mish a couple years ago on the phone and his rigs are a
lot
cheaper than this. So why would would one bid this high?

Easy answer. Radio-Mart is the seller (Martyn in Louisville) and he now has
all sales with private IDs.
Unfortunately, unless constantly watched by eBay private IDs can encourage
the seller (or associates of seller)
to bid on the item and raise the overall prices (This practice is illegal on
eBay - when they catch it).

Radio-Mart disappeared from eBay for a while -- unknown whether eBay
initiated this censorship --
Go to Safe Harbor on eBay with that question.

Do a Google search on this name and eBay --- you will find hundreds of
comments from buyers throughout the Internet newsgroups, etc. -- make you
own judgments from what you read.
