That was a steal for that price Will. I paid $115 for mine at the Timonium
Hamfest.

Subject: [Amps] HP5328A Counter
All,
I received the HP 5328A counter today with the 1.3 GHz option and voltmeter
option. The pics didn't do it justice as it looks almost new except for the
stain on top left by glue from a tag or label. It included a shielded BNC
adapter for the voltmeter terminals and a Tektronix P6028 1X probe which I
did need for my scope. Really, I was looking for just another bench counter
so the DVM is a plus. I just tried it out on all modes and it worked like it
should. I ended up with $49 in it not counting shipping which was $17 if I
remember. I've seen just the scope probe bring $25 to $30 on ebay. Plus
hardly ever does the 1.3 GHz option ever show up, mostly up to 550 MHz. A
clean one of these with no DVM has been bringing about $30 on ebay. The DVM
adds about $10 I've noticed. I wonder if the price was right or too high?
The reason being, if I ever wanted to re-sale it, what would be a fair
price?
Best,
Will
