Hello All!
I recently got rid of an 8200 that was in pieces. It was sold on here for parts. That made me dig into my "old Treasures" boxes. I found that I had replaced the broken one with another one about 6 months after the accident of the first. It was probably used for a couple of weeks then put away. All the original items that came with it are still in the box "unused". The manual,the original batteries, the wall wart, the cig-lighter plug, the AM attatchment, the belt clip are all in their original plastic never used. The radio is in mint condition, the light was in the off position as I had last set it so it is still bright as a bulb. I cant believe I forgot about this radio. Anyway, my question is what is a radio in this shape worth these days? I am the original owner.Im not sure I want to sell it but then again, its just sitting in a box. The only thing is obviously the 800 MHZ gap. However, at least you can tune from 800-869 without a problem,unlike ICOM who just deletes the whole entire 800 band. Anyway, as I said, I dont know if I am going to sell it but I would like to know what it is worth.
