Sonic Circus Guitar Amplifier Sale of the Century
$200,000 anyone?
Somebody had a serious case of Hoard and Clutter syndrome, Packrat Syndrome, or Compulsive Hoarding Syndrome. Even I don't have this many amps. (but only because I have no more room to put amps).
There are many nice amps in this auction, but very few real finds. Any of these amps could be had on eBay. Some are more valuable than others. I counted (quickly) 664 pictures, but many are front and back pictures so figure 400 amps. Most are valued between $300 and $500. Many are less and there are a few notables valued at more.
There has to be $200,000 worth of amps retail. The eBay price would be about $100k to $150K. I am guessing that the purchase price will be less than $100,000 for the bunch. Possibly well under 75K because there aren't many people who can come up with the cash and have the patience to off that many dogs on eBay.
You could bid $75k or so and then spend the next year posting them on eBay at the rate 10 or 20 a week. You could make a nice living for a year. You'd make about $75k total on the project and only have to work 15 to 20 hours a week listing amps and packing them up for shipment.
