The numbers say nothing about condition. or region they are valued in. Just too many variables. We have all seen people pay way too much for way too little in value. I like Dave Stahls assessment of the situation.<BR>

<BLOCKQUOTE TYPE=CITE style="BORDER-LEFT: #0000ff 2px solid; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0px; PADDING-LEFT: 5px">Perhaps we could do some benchmarking by looking at today's Boston Globe <BR>
listings:<BR>
<BR>
St Bs: 37K, 44K<BR>
St O: 24K, 28K<BR>
St A: 34K, 36K, 95.5K (art case remanuf by Peter Mohr)<BR>
St D: 45K<BR>
St C: 27K<BR>
Of course conditions vary, from fully remanufactured to reconditioned, <BR>
and most of the prices are probably subject to negotiation<BR>
