There are some people out there that put an unrealistic value on certain items.  Obvisouly he know that certain Sunn items fetch a good price, but I don't think that this guy is serious about selling...so he puts a really high price on the item just to show it off.

Last year on eBay there was a Rhodes Mk V electric piano, new in the box, with a price tag of $10,000, the price came down to $7500 and then to $6,000.  It's now at $4500 and still no takers.  Some people???

Maybe the auction is actually for 4 of them and the seller just forgot to mention it?  :roll:

At least the $100 for shipping that monster is a pretty good deal; UPS quoted me over $1000 to pack and freight two 2000S cabs and a head across country.

I saw that on the bay yesterday. He won't sell it - and that shipping price is an estimated, not actual which will be really high. Buyer beware.

Did you guys see the Entwistle bass cases for sale on eBay?  Waay too much.  Guy wants $20,000 or something stupid like that, bought them all for $500 last year.  And they are oversized, can't go on a plane either because the exploiter was a big bass.  You just gotta be careful out there.  300Ts are a bit ridiculous these days if you ask me, people are wanting $150 - 1600, no way.  $1200 will get you a much better bass head from Genz Benz, Aguilar, Eden or Ampeg.  Know that is heresy on Sunn page but you just got to call it like you see it.

Eh, that's subjective really. One man's $1,500 holy grail of an amp is "meh" to the next guy. Everyone likes different stuff.

The price was totally whack!  I was tempted to ask if it had any rock history like it was on the stage at Woodstock or it was used by The Who or something else that was significant.  According to eBay, the item was removed and shows as sold @ $2100 but it is still on Criagslist for $2000:  http://baltimore.craigslist.org/msg/1660186235.html

I can't wait to list my 612s!  Maybe I'll up it -- 3000 a piece(to start)!  Why not? :p

They've been well-loved. so I think it really adds to the quality and therefore the price MUST go up!

Holy Crap.... and it SOLD???  Jesus, I bought my 6x12 last year for $500 shipped from TX to CT... Unreal.  $2100 is too much. Someone got screwed.

Well guys, you know, for some people, $2100 is not a lot of money.

I don't happen to be one of those people.

I sent the guy and email regarding his price.  He said that he took it off eBay because it sold locally.  I wonder how much he really got for the cab.
