Crazy Prices
#1

Hi Guys,

Since winter is here in Illinois, garage sales and flee markets are out until spring, I've been looking on ebay and Goodwill. I always look for radios, mostly Philco, that need repair. Goodwill's prices look to be in line but I question ebay.
Is it me or are prices getting outrageous on ebay? Here's an example:

Are they out of line? What do you think?
