Wow look at this I have no knowledge whatsoever on these but seems somewhat high priced. Is this $59.80 or $5,980?
What do you guys think? Is this rare?

Wow cool! I kinda wish I had the clams to actually buy it.

the prices on those things are simply insane. They look neat, but technically speaking they are garbage sets. Just a simple AA5 type usually, nothing that makes it a good performer. Many of them don't even work. It just tweaks me that my Scott Allwave 15 that is superior by any measurable means is worth at best a third what one of those plastic things sells for.

Holy crap!

I will definitely keep an eye out for one of those at the thrifts.

they are really hard to find in that condition as well :yes: usually the plastic has cracked alot and they look like garbage. even in that condition they will still pick up a grand or so.
