And the reserve price hasn't been met! Silly hams.

Whatever floats your boat. I have seen many give thousands for a restored car
that cost very little new. Different people have different interests, doesn't
necessarily mean they are silly.
I bought an AC-1 in 1962 for about $19. I built it and when I finally got it
working, I had the tubes in the wrong sockets, I had the most fun I have had in
40 years of ham radio.
Would I give $300 for a restored AC-1, no, nor would I give $25,000 for a
restored '66 Mustang. There are many that would. Are coin, stamp, or fill in
the blank collectors silly?
