Items are going for way too much on E-bay, for some products :

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...7307224317&rd=1

and with 5 days left, you know the price will only escalate.

thats disgusting. people are so stupid

while i agree, it would be cool to have a "vintage 5150" instead of a 6505, fuck paying that much...

you could probably make a ton off of that... just think, the awesomeness of the 5150 in a more managable 60w version, with the correct bias, and REVERB!!!!1

YOURS FOR ONLY $1,200!!!

SUPER BOOTEL!!!1!QA

theres a sucker born everyday.

it's not really lying though....

the bias is that of what it would be with a bias mod because it was origionally a combo and peavey for some reason felt the combos should be biases correctly yet the heads should be cold as shit. why is beyond me, but thats how it is.

the combos have reverb, the heads do not... so this "head" does.

it really is only 60w. and some people desire low wattage heads. and peavey never made a 60w one.

it is in a way "custom"... he made it into a head.

oh, and it's "vintage" as of a month or two ago...

i say, if you're ever going to sell it.. now is the time. because once the 6505's come out and start hitting the used market... 5150's will also decrease in price.

you could probably sell it for even more than a regular 5150 or 5150 II because of how unique it is.

man, if only i didn't just shell out $1,240 i would consider finding a cheap 5150(you can find them at reasonable prices if you look enough because not everone has caught on to the price increase just yet.) and then reselling it for more..
