Guest orionkc Posted March 14, 2007 Report Share Posted March 14, 2007 Isn't this ridiculous? http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...65444&rd=1&rd=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joelongwood Posted March 14, 2007 Report Share Posted March 14, 2007 To my way of thinking it most certainly is ridiculous. But, hey.......if that's how people want to spend their money, who am I to criticize? For that kind of change, I'm sure a woodworker could craft an exact duplicate.......or two, or three.

Carlspeak Posted March 14, 2007 Report Share Posted March 14, 2007 Collectors will pay rediculous amounts of money for collectibles. In this case, if I read the write up correctly, this item falls loosely in the realm of 'antique' - if it is indeed authentic.Aaah, to each his own!It's all about the musicCarlCarl's Custom Loudspeakers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dynaco_dan Posted March 14, 2007 Report Share Posted March 14, 2007 Hi Bob;I chuckle when I see some of the outrageous prices some classic items are going for.AR turntable plastic tops $42.00, cartridge shells $60.00 and original logos $20.00+.I guess it is time we all start to clean out our closets.I know I will in the next few months.>>I have at least 7 - 3/4" 4 ohm AR tweeters, look in really original looking condition.The domes are as pristine as the day they were made, great specs, sweet highs, very clean looking.Slight problem though, they are all blown, if that bothers anyone. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Posted March 14, 2007 Report Share Posted March 14, 2007 Who's to say what is and is not ridiculous, value is determined by the buyers price paid. I a person wants something and wants it now...hey ! The guy up the road from me just paid $5,200 for a 1930's Zenith table radio ?*%# Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JKent Posted March 15, 2007 Report Share Posted March 15, 2007 I agree it's ridiculous, but have you priced solid walnut lately? I doubt you could find a woodworker who would make these for that price. OTOH, I'm sure poplar with a walnut stain would look just fine for most applications. Just my $.02 ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
