Holy f***ing crap!!

Did anybody else see this Aiwa CS-880 on eBay? It sold for $335 and didn't have a working cassette, the speaker foams are shot, one antenna messed up, and the passive radiator is missing.

I'm still scratching my head on that one.

wow so i guess i could get 1,000 for mine

 

[redbenjoe]

i did see it -- very strange --
that was 150 box -- TOPS !!!

 

[blu_fuz]

Yeah, I was watching that too. F'n crazy what people will pay for some boxes. Just shows that we really don't know the "value" of any boombox when M90s sell for under $400 and a jacked up Aiwa sells for $300+

[Superduper]

Not too suprised. Lots of people have this one on their wish list. Few examples to go around. Simple supply and demand at work.

I wonder what that would have sold for if the USA wasnt in recession. 1000$? 2000?

Good news for us, Better then UK houseing Market!

It really seems like there is NO guide lines. No blue book, NO way to tell, predict or plan for what any of these will sell for. I'm not even sure what that means.

But one thing is for sure, who ever won that auction is more of the "I'm going to win it at any cost" type of person, than a collector making an informed decision because they liked, wanted or needed those parts! (Christ I hope my wife didn't win that!)

**Disclaimer: If I offended the person who bought that, sorry**
