It's been up for a YEAR and he's had a lot of emails over that time period, enough that I wonder if he's a time waster or it's not really for sale.

I would want an "M" face plate rather than the other one for any Big-M style radio.

The M is more exciting

I just sold a non-working but fairly clean 8M with the correct knobs and "M" plate like in the photo EverettB posted above for $275. I had two other offers below that. So $700 is just plain nuts.

I looked at my deleted ads and I sold one a while back for basically the same price.
