Go to the ebay link cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=4748054897&category=306&ssPageName=WDVW&rd=1
and read what these AT40 guest hosts said in their "fill in" time.

A quick check shows the items did not sell - the auction reserve was never met. Personally, I think the highest bidder was VERY high, and I can't even imagine paying whatever ungodly amount the seller would have wanted.

The author and AT40 collector, Pete Basttistini, is the owner of this set. As far as price goes, it all depends on the person. Some say, no baseball card is worth more than a dollar. Others will gladly spend thousands. Collectibles can sell very high once the demand is high; and bidders fight each other, once the "I gotta have" mindset is at play.

IMO, $500 is not too much for this set. On the other hand, I'm not willing to part with that amount of money. My guide is based on what I heard from a Las Vegas record collector, who has about a million records in his collection. No lie. He was offering AT40 shows @ $40/show. I would add $10 per show because of the special lot that Pete put together; simply put, it's a once in a lifetime chance to have a collection of guest hosted shows of the 70's.

I totally agree with you in every point ...... but is it a good idea to post a persons privacy here on a public board ? I mean he did nothing forbidden with the listing of this lot, but I believe it's not fair to post his real name on some site here, even some of us know who's behind the auctioner.
