Yep, the funnies in the equation. Looking at the trends - Wiard #1 goes for over $10K (then re-listed I think?). One Classic VCO early version goes for $1100. Yet a 6- module later generation is listed at $6K-7K and no one bites. Just saw the same thing happen with Serge panels - folks selling contemporary STS panels can't move them at a decent price, yet someone lists an '80s vintage with arguably worse manufacturing and they go for far more. Go figure. Must be the ebay blind collector syndrome.
