Not guilty! I saw that ad and wondered if he or she really thinks someone will buy the whole shootin' match at that price!

I bet it will be on Ebay before too long.

Pretty delusional if he thinks its worth anywhere near that amount on today's market. Even if he parted it out and sold it piece by piece, he'd be lucky to get half that amount.

Yes, and remember, Step 1 is to send some of your collection to me!

not me... maybe he'll decide to break it up when he doesn't get any takers.

Remember the giant collection of 10ERs and parts that was listed up in Seattle last Spring? I remember he had numerous machines and related and a big giant table of 10E/ER parts that were all polished…it was a truly seductive mountain of shiny aluminum. I think he started at something like $5k and had no takers so it was delisted at $4500 and I don't think it ever sold (at least not via E-Bay) and then no more word…he had a part I've been looking for in vain for a long time and I send him a message begging to buy that part and he could name his price…never heard back from him and never saw any sign of anyone splitting that collection up - I wish I had saved the photos as it was pretty impressive.

I just dug around and found the thread:

The E-Bay link is no longer good, so can't see the pictures, but it was an impressive collection and I have to wonder what it's fate is...
