Stupidity

http://cgi.ebay.com/Antique-Admiral-...3A3%7C294%3A50


US$ 100.00???? For a really not rare TV with a BUSTED CRT and a missing speaker??? I don't think so!!!

I know that in the US those Admiral sets are not rare; even here, in Brazil, where they are not very easy to find, I was able to buy that same model ( with an INTACT CRT, but also, coincidently, with a missing speaker ) for LESS money than this guy is asking for!!!

I paid US$ 90.00 for mine, to be more precise; and again, the CRT on mine is INTACT. For Brazilian standards, I paid a cheap price, because TVs of that vintage usually sell for considerably more here... they are not easy to find here, specially if you are outside the city of São Paulo.

I would like to bid on this TV because I need the right side control door, which is missing on mine, but... a hundred dollars... it is waaayyy out of question, at least for a piece in that condition!!!
