That appears to have been the magic number for one *lucky* bidder (and an even luckier seller).

It's going to take awhile for market value to catch up...unless the dollar keeps plummeting .

Very Lucky Seller. But I gave him very detailed info regarding the cab and speakers and he failed to correct the untrue statements in his auction. With guys like this out there, phrases like "Buyer Beware" were never more true!

Just 'cause the seller may have been duped, doesn't give him the right to do the same to others.

Yup, the seller basically admitted to me that he knew the Celestions were not from '67, much less "Pre-Rola". His rationale for not correcting the auction info was that he got duped by Guitar Center and had to recoup his bad investment.

Sure, "I got screwed, so that gives me the right to screw someone else." Sigh.
