You never know what to expect on eBay. Sometimes a real deal comes along.
It depends on what the bidders are willing to pay, as well as what the
sellers want to get for an item.
I have seen in the past that same rig (FT101EE) go for $150 on eBay.
I picked up an HTX-100 for $50 on eBay. I turned it into an 144 MHz
microwave transverter IF by mounting a 144 MHz transverter in the rig and
extensively modifying it, but the rig was in fine shape when I got it.
I wouldn't discount eBay but I'd be patient. The right deal may come
along eventually, just not this week.
