The seller could have also made a mistake in typing when listing the opening bid; I think he or she may have meant $8.00 or even less.
BTW, I have only seen one Magnavox TV with the "Phantom" bellows-type 2-button remote in my life, and that was over thirty years ago. I have a friend whose parents owned a Magnavox remote 19" table model (with the "Phantom" hand unit, of course) in the '60s. The TV was b&w and worked well for them until about the end of the '80s or so, then quit. It was replaced soon thereafter, my friend told me some time ago, by a Fisher console.
