Yup, for example an IDE hard drive can easily cost more than a lower-capacity SATA drive. No more of that for me, I'm saving my external firewire drive that was bought for another purpose but never used in case another hard drive goes on me. The drive in the external enclosure is a SATA. Also, lots of soakers on eBought for memory cards of a low enough capacity to work with my old camera, but one seller has a crapload of NOS Kingston cards packaged with a card reader that I also needed for 8 bucks.

Ah, the heydays of home stereo systems, when more than half the pages of that university newspaper were stereo ads.

Those prices seem insanely high to me. Of course I have no idea what the exchange rate was in 1973. I didn't know any mid-fi stereo system back then cost anywhere near $1500. As far as well made....a matter of opinion. Most of that 70's japanese stuff was nothing to get excited about.

Those prices are kinda awful for the early 70's. $1400 bought you a pretty decent car over at the Bowmac.
