stuff used to cost money REAL money (back when borrowing rates were in the 10% plus for mortgages). I remember paying 800$ in 1979 for a VHS VCR... Back then you did not have cable broadcasting a jillion channel with on demand programming so if you wanted to watch an episode of the twilight zone you had to stay up till 1:00 AM or get a VCR.
I like the idea of well made, quality stuff that is repairable vs made in china junk that will fill our landfills with toxic waste...
That looks like a nice set, yea 250$ is a lot (I got one like that for 25 recently) but if its in nice shape I would get it if I had the space.
when you consider the value of the dollar, 250 is a bargin. Thats a few fillups at the gas station, and maybe a few cheap lunches. But since demand is low it will prob not sell unless he goes a LOT lower.
