I've seen more rediculous prices on Predictas than any other set, one time I saw one in an old TV shop, and the guy there wanted 5k for it.

I believe the Smithsonian has one already, so no market there, although some sellers seem to think so!

Predicta ble
 
There was an Andy Rooney segment on Sixty Minutes last Sunday about "ART" and some peoples idea of what constitutes art.

If you blinked, you would have missed it , but there was the back end of a Predicta CRT casing and chassis having been made part of a sculpture of some sort.. Looked like a pile of junque to me.

I had to make mention of it. Not that the EBAY set was being hawked as a piece of art..... At least this thing could be used for parts. Maybe......

It won't sell and a lesson will be learned. I Hope....
