Am I missing something here, or are there some people that just have no clue
on the price of BAs?

The question is whether these overbidders actually buy the radio.

I sold a few BA items on e-bay that were described as in poor condition, yet
sold them for 10 times more than they were worth. I had trouble sleeping,
even though I had a fair description, and no longer sell on e-bay.
For many people, bidding is a sort of therapy - just a bit less expensive
than seeing a real shrink.

I'll give you my opinion on what I feel the price levels are for an SX-111
today, based on my observations on ebay, talks with fellow BA enthusiasts,
and from what I've observed at hamfests.
For rigs that require moderate cosmetic work and minor electrical work, I'd
say around $100. For major electrical work, the price goes down.
For rigs that require minimal cosmetic work and basically work, but perhaps
require an alignment and a good bath, around $140.
For rigs that are 9+ cosmetically and electrically, around $175.
Now, the seller of the ebay SX-111 indicates his rig is esentially a museum
/ collector quality unit, with original Hallicrafters tubes, box etc. I'd
say a max price of around $200. I'm sure there are a lot of folks that
would suggest changes to this price structure, and that's fine; as I said
it's my opinion.
Finally, the market is driven by supply and demand. I haven't observed the
SX-111 to be a rare radio, and I haven't observed the demand to be that
great. Still, in my opinion, $350+ is WAY out of line, even if you add a
fudge factor for higher costs on the east and west costs!!
