Who do you think winds those auctions?  Does and L4B  actually put our 
1500 watts?
Now if it were a heatkit, unassembeled, in  the original box, it would be 
a true collectors piece.
The Viking  Ranger I the ARRL put together a few years back was worth a 
whole lot more  before they made the first solder joint.  It not only was 
rare, it  was unique.

But what is there to show an L4B is brand new, never used  that will make 
it stand out from other pristine L4Bs?
A normal  collector would want a piece that screams "I am Unique", I am 
worth a  fortune to those who can see I'm different!
This may be a never used amp,  but it is not "brand new". At best it is 
NOS that is likely to need new  caps at a minimum before it can be used.
An amp is worth what ever the  market will stand and he'll probably get 
it, but what is so special about  this amp that would make it a genuine 
collectors  piece?
