In the crate, out of the crate, in the crate,

Oh, I agree. ;)

The seller should just forget the E-bay crowd and try selling directly to the military; a $2000.00 hammer could then be used to re-crate, un-crate, re-crate etc. this phono.

Hey guys, you're slipping. The S-19 and its crate are back on E-bay, for another seven hours.

This is kinda like waiting for the return of Haley's Comet--but just a lot more frequent. I kinda wish, though, that it would escape the sun's orbit somewhere beyond Neptune and never return.

It definitely would have sold by now if it was only the much more desirable H-19 and crate... :lol:
