THEY'RE GOING TO THE MOON! and then it will settle down...normally in less than a month cycle. I might be tempted to come back with a lower offer and say that the price has fluctuated wildly down, but no good thing could come of that. There are plenty of 33 Goudeys and T206s to go around...and that's not a bad thing and actually insulates your investment in my opinion. There's enough to keep collectors interested. You should probably move on from the seller...they will only bring you down. As I have made known, I am currently in the market for a T206 Ohara. There are two with BINs on ebay that would fit my bill. Both are probably overpriced by 40%, IMO...so I'll keep looking.

At least from an Ebay perspective, I think that there are currently a lot more 33 Goudeys at a BIN price as opposed to auctions. After a brief look at the completed listings for 33 Goudeys, I got away from the tunnel vision and am back to patiently awaiting good deals.
