I notice that both collectors and non-collectors reference eBay for values nowadays. How many times have you heard "these go for ___ on ebay". My question always is "is that what they sell for or is that what the seller is asking?". There's a big difference. A rule of thumb for valuing antiques was always to ignore auction sales, but people seem to have forgotten that.
This seller with that RCA TV is deranged. Without knowing if the CRT is okay, it's a $35 swap-meet set.
