Point taken, Gil, but a word of caution is in order when taking prices from
eBay. There are sellers who post items with ridiculously high
prices--(e.g. almost $100 for a DC-600 cart). When you use eBay for
valuation, be sure you quote SALE prices, not ASKING.
Come to think of it, I've got 2 CD's worth of eBay tuba auctions just for
that eventuality.
