Just had a look at evilbay & an acdc prem in vic is still sitting at $6450 with some mod or other (apparently exc condn, one owner - who knows without looking) - but my view is most ebay pins are $500+ overpriced - plus deal offline & save $300 immedly. So there's one effectively for $6k unsold.. Doesn't this suggest the price range starts at $6k or lower? And in Qld where pins are the cheapest in Oz - maybe just a tad lower still? I think if I'm patient I could find one for $5,500 or $5,750? Or am I missing something?
Not missing anything. You are spot on. ACDC prices are not going to increase as the market for them here is flooded. Close to 700 units by last count. The LE's will hold some value but the Premiums and Pros won't. Bide your time and you'll pick a Premium up in that price range (high $5k) from someone that is looking for quick cash.
Yeah, I think you r right - once at $6k you've got to look at titles like CV. I don't mind acdc (only Stern I've liked - boredom set in playing Iron Man once & kind of put me off).
Right place at the right time and you'll grab a stock standard excellent condition CV for $6k.
