Can someone comment on the value of the Ranger Rci 2950 First Generation radio?
Working 100% in all aspects and comes with factory box, manual, power cord, mounting bracket/knobs, and stock microphone.

Due to the large amount of issues that the first generation radios had, I would have to say no more than $100 bucks.

That was were I was thinking as well. Thanks.

Complete and guaranteed no issues? Looks good too? They will still go as high as 175 especially on ebay. Locals around here would pay 125. I think 100 is too low as listed.

I would buy this as stated, if it looked good too - not all scratched up, for 100 all day long and ask how many they had !

They wanted $200.00 shipped. To much of a risk for such an old model IMO.

Unless it's mint as new in the box that is way too much. 75-100 bucks average working, 125 clean and working. The one you are talking about would be 100-150.

I wouldn't pay no where near that price. 2 more weeks of allowance would get a new DX model delivered.

the 2950 1st genr is going for around 100 or so and a 2950dx mints going for around 150 to 175...they are so plenty-full...not like a 2510 or 2600 or a lincon,great radios in house but not in the car,i like 2950s 73 de JW

I know this is an old topic from 2013 .... but I just bought a NOS RCI - 2950 from an old friend , it's never been used until now . The radio is immaculate , and still smelled brand new when I took it out of the box .

Hahaha, not me. Its just literally almost every single post i see, and there are tons of em, on facebook or radio forums that ask this question want the ridiculous ebay dummy price. They want to hear its worth millions so thats what i always tell them.
Not saying the op is one of them but its just my force of habbit. Like you cant do 15min of investigation and figure it out. Whats this mic worth? Common..

My wife hates when I buy radios because I don't sell them .... lol
