This guy must be smokin' some stuff....

[guitar_199]

I was just looking through my local Facebook Marketplace for CB gear....
(right here in my little Deer Park, TX)

Found a guy selling 2 radios...
A Cobra 21 (plain old 23 channel), and
A Cobra 25LTD...

$150 EACH!!!!!!!

 

[Shadetree Mechanic]

But wait, there's more! The 25 has echo......

Does the piece of wood they are sitting on come with it?

The HOUSE should come with them at that price.
At least... the DOG should !!!!!!

 

[9C1Driver]

Lol, probably worth 15 bucks for the pair.

sadly.... I don't deserve to have such 'mint' pieces in my collection.

('mint' coming from PAVE-mint ... which these seem to have spent a LOT of time there!!!!!)

[edited to add]
truly... I am the kind of nut that would like to have a radio like that 21 in my stash.... but not at $150. No way.

Hey get a hold of that guy and find out where he gets that good stuff he is smoking. Maybe it will set us all free. LOL

I know how that works. A while back I bought a couple of Cobra 25's, a couple of Cobra 29's and a Cobra 21 (all 40 channel).... JUST FOR THE PARTS.
They were "ugly as home-made sin". Even if they WERE working.... THESE would be the "ugly puppies" that nobody picks to take home.

They are just there... for parts.

Then I ran into another ad.... $5.
The guy was describing an old "scanner" radio. Describing controls, describing the BNC antenna connector..... the received freq range..... ALL of it... described a scanner.

But the picture???? It was an MFJ-259B antenna analyzer and the picture showed it live and working.

$5.

 

[Brother DXer]

I saw this on eBay today. The guy calls it a Base Station CB Radio. And only wants $500.00
It's neither of what he claims it to be.

Grab that one!

Grab that one!

I asked him if the item in the picture is the item he is selling......

he hasn't responded yet. It was only a couple of hours ago. It could be DAYS before he does.

But ...if he says yes.... I'm gonna be out of this house so fast.... I'll draw a 30" vacuum on the room I was in at the time!!!!!!!!!
