As far as I can tell, Rickenbacker is still the best kept secret in my neck of the woods. Some people of my acquaintance still thought that they were made in the UK, until I informed them otherwise.

Prices seem right in line to me. Have you checked the Manufactuer's Suggested Retail Price List recently?

Prices are like the weather to me. It's all relative.
Do I need this Ric? NO.
Do I want this Ric? YES.

My perception is that prices have dropped on eBay since the recent economic unpleasantness hit.

I agree completely. Only wish i could justify shelling out a grand and picking up a decent Ric. Parents would kill me, 'at a time like this...blah'

I'm sure the prices will rebound when things get better.
