That's an asking not a receiving price anyhow. There a few sellers on there who regularly get outrageous prices and I believe that there is a well concealed shill bidding scheme or some other scam involved since the bids they are getting are way out of proportion to what identical items get from other sellers. Crazy stuff like $150 for a Philco 47-200, one you can find for under $30 without trying on the same site. Some sellers are either looking at the "pump and dump" auctions and getting their asking prices there, or are just making it up.
