Sammie, the original dubs are disappearing and it's very hard as you know to find one that's original. It's the same as asking "Find an original 32 Ford." Fundamentally I think that the prices are crazy and I agree with you, something that's been hacked shouldn't be worth all that much. I think Barrett Jackson and a few other "Auction TV" shows have changed that so now we are seeing lots of hack-em-ups going for really big bucks. What I also get from thesamba thread as well is that some of the same whiners are also perpetuating that feeding frenzy. I give Randy Carlson about as much credit for driving up prices on hack jobs as anybody.
