Tom, did you buy yours new? I paid $2900 for #500 around  '72, which was 
sold as new. I found out later at Dallas Arbiter in N.J. that  it had been on 
tour, even though it looked new.

value of other  vintage analog instruments certainly have. People are trying to 
get at least  the original prices for Echoplex these days.
