RCA 10T
#60

Well, after the 10T sat here dormant for the past two years, I finally got a message from ebay that there was one up for sale, and I wanted to get a feel for what they were going for. I had been researching off and on during that period of time all info I could gather about this model. Seems with all that, there was about a dozen or so models that were owned or talked about, stretching back to about 1995 on the net. Of course I realize that there must be far more than a dozen, but if you follow the ones presented, you find that they are "repeats", being exchanged amongst collectors.
The ebay one came up on my notifications about 2 months ago for $700 and was there about 4 days with no one seeming to bite. I thought that odd. 
I took a chance and joined the barking dog forum to get an opinion on the subject (as my phone and computer had been somehow corrupted awhile back and it was near impossible to log in here. I don't know why, but I had a dickens of a time unsuccessfully signing in). Wasn't but a day or so after that I think, and it was removed without any further information. One of the guys over there said he got a notification also and it was first listed at $400, sans knobs, and was listed again at $700 with knobs. Soon as I posted that, it was gone like the wind with several days left on the clock.
So, of course, it piqued my interest and made me take a closer look at mine.
After some discussion, it didn't seem to generate much interest there, and I was told it *MIGHT* bring about 150
bucks or so, tops. (Seems they were all catagorizing the t10-1 into their equations. TOTALLY different animal made in the multiple THOUSANDS!!! DURR...). Seeing that it wasn't worth much more than a common cheapo set of same vintage, I figured I had absolutely nothing to lose by pulling the chassis and checking it out. So I did.
