Speaking as a proud, satisfied owner with no desire to sell mine, it's nevertheless a bit disconcerting to see them so undervalued. I paid more than twice that for my superb BDP 5.5 three years ago and considered that a bargain, though the market was stronger then. Perhaps those four would have each netted more had there been more pics, of the wires in particular.

Darn, I've been lusting for an RA piccolo for some time now, and these went for a ridiculously low price. I suspect the problem was that there were 4 of them listed simultaneously. Also, The blue pearl doesn't look original, probably a rewrap.

A lot of Premier gear has been 'undervalued' in recent years, but then a value is only what people are prepared to pay at a certain time. The last 14x4 RA I sold last year made around £120. And it was MINT (including the double-tens!). But hey ho, it was more than I paid for it. £120 seemed low as there were others listed around that time with £200-250 BIN prices. But they were not selling at those prices.

A lot of vintage stuff seems undervalued at the moment, there are bargains to be had. They usually pay a good price for Premier in the States, these seem stupidly cheap
