Things are just more expensive on the east coast. A west coast XIV is going for only $5000:

I offered $10,000 and he could keep the records but he wouldn't bite... :cry: Not gone any higher because he said it didn't have the original needle with it.

We offered them $500 to simply pull the listing and seek psychological evaluation.

He swears he wasn't trying to be funny. He was dead serious...
