Yeah...I should have added...rare and desirable are two different things...which is what Ron mentioned.

Edit and Add: What I said may have conveyed the wrong thing. I sure didn't mean to imply the radio^^wasn't "desirable". Heck Ive seen these sell for good $ in nice condition. I meant generally..low production numbers don't always translate to higher values. The other side of that same coin is condition of the example. Ive seen particularly nice examples of fairly common models sell for small fortunes.
