Yet another RCA 621TS

Looks to be in good condition. Any bets on where this one will end ?

That's a nice one -- looks very restorable!

The laws of supply and demand seem to be functioning quite well at the moment. Price is high, and sure enough, they are coming out of the woodwork.

I wonder how many serious collectors there really are, however, who are willing to pay so much for one of these?

I paid $175 for mine less than two years ago. I think the seller wanted $225, and I bargained him down. Shame on me!

LOL - I had a chance to buy one for "only" $1,500 a couple weeks ago. I had to pass on it.

[bandersen]

It went for 'only' $1,114.

i know, price is crazy now. ive noticed the prices of collectible vintage computer stuff has went through the roof as well, either that, or our USD isnt worth crap anymore... or both.

That one went cheap, probably the issues with the cabinet kept it down.

I paid about the same amount for mine six or seven years ago, it was in far better shape though needing no cabinet work at all.
