I was very suprised when I received a GOUGE ($150!!) price quote for a
G05 160027 HV unit in response to my request by a Vectorlist regular who I
had been generous to in the past... I'm not naming the individual, but I was
pretty shocked.
Needless to say, I was able to get one for merely repairing a friend's
G05 deflection board. I also would have considered buying one for any price
under $70; I understand the highest they've ever gone on the famous internet
auction site was $60....

I find this offensive as well, it just really SUCKS when it reaches the
vectorlist, and is among those who have been here for a long time. I thought
the list existed so we could help each other out, not rediculously GOUGE when
someone is in need of a Vector part.
