I figured maybe this would sell for $400 or so!
I got mine for $100 a few years ago.

This is one of those sets that was up for aution at the right time. Someone wanted that set bad. It has a somewhat unusual cabinet, but is rather large and plain. I passed one up for a few hundred dollars not long ago. $500 maybe, but $1200! Wow!

I know the buyer, I've bought many sets from him.
He's a not a newbie to collecting TV's so he must have a reason, guess I'll have to ask him

Just wanted to say that I have enjoyed your web site for some time now Eric! You have a great collection. Pardon my oponion on the Motorola. Looking back, I actually wish I would have grabbed the one I passed up on!

Thank you Joey

Your opinion is just fine, I thought it was too high also.
The last one on ebay went for $400 or $500 I think, I got mine for $100 probably because it was listed wrong and you had to specify "motorola TV set" to find it.

However if this is the new going price I guess I can live with the 10X appreciation
