Check out the Workmanship...

There does seem to be a minor eBay depression on most items. I snagged the first 16 issues of Byte for $20 the other day! That's far and away the lowest I've ever seen Byte #1-#16 go for and I've seen just the first issue sell for over $100 regularly. I haven't, however, seen any Altair systems on auction for weeks. I've been tracking these for the past 6+ months to monitor prices and I can't imagine that the next few to go on auction won't fetch a premium due to the pent up demand.

Sellam...I think your right, I've seen a lot of weakness in prices on a lot of things...(e.g. Commodore SuperPETS for $90), but certain items see to be the same price as they used to be, for example..Apple Lisa's still get $300-$350 Any other examples of price weaknesses due to this economy? Have Altair's come down in price? Only if I had money.... -Chandra -----Original Message----- From: cctalk-admin(a)classiccmp.org [mailto:cctalk-admin@classiccmp.org] On Behalf Of Sellam Ismail Sent: Thursday, August 08, 2002 7:35 PM To: cctalk(a)classiccmp.org Subject: Re: Check out the Workmanship...

It seems nobody has money these days, at least for old video game stuff. I don't have money either but I'm taking advantage of the situation. This is the only time I like eBay.
