I wish eBay would get away from being flooded with cheap Chinese junk (like Amazon has become) so it would be easier to find quality stuff.
be nice if they kept scrap junk parts seperate from working radios.start browsing here is a case,diodes connecters etc etc.if i want to view parts id typed in parts in search bar
Last eBay auction item I won was my 148GTL-DX. $68 shipped, was amazed I won that cheap, then when it arrived I realized it was a DX, not the normal 148GTL... still works great, after I removed the swing kit that made it squeal every time I keyed up.

A lot of sellers are ego centric assholes hence the high prices and rude replies to questions.
I own a late model philly 2k that I won't sell for less than 500.00.
Value is what someone is willing to pay.
If i send questions about an item for sale,get shitty responce i kinda respond with HELL TAKE THAT POS BACK TO THE DUMP WHERE YOU FOUND IT AND have fun peddlin it n good day
And while we are ranting,another burn thing. Some guy buys up a shitpoke full o buiness band radios,yanks power cords n mics n sells them as working ham radios. Unknowing buyers get stung.had a friend buy 1,just got his license. Didnt know he bought a buisness band radio that cost 5x the price to change it to use as a ham radio. I helped him get his $$$ back from seller. I then gave him a working 2 meter radio with the understanding its on loan. He did buy a good dual band kenwood,gave me my radio back.
They should be made to post if buisness band in header and QUIT YANKIN MICS N POWER CORDS

That is correct. Add the trump money to the equation, and the price that someone is willing to pay just went up. Not to mention that prices will continue to go up as the coming skip cycle picks up.
Since I'm in 1st grade around here 
am I to assume there is not any good base radios anymore? If so, what are options nowadays?

You can look at this way,
A fool and his money will soon part.
Buyer beware.
If you don't like the price, move on.
I personally don't like buying stuff online that you have to trust the person is telling you.
I like to see & touch the item.
If we all stop wanting to buy this over priced shit then maybe the price will come down.
That goes for the new shit also.
I think we live on a very very over priced world.
Stay safe everyone.
