It was expensive but the days of the complete and working $200 sets are long gone. Guess its the same price curve across the board with gear and parts for everything WWII now.
The set could be broken up and sold as individual items for at lease 50 percent over what it cost based on market prices so I felt safe I could get this one and either part out my old complete set or make it available to someone for a really good deal which is what ended up happening to it. My old set was complete and nice but not this nice and it lacked some of the bonus goodies like the unique satchels and mounting hardware. A gamble I guess but it worked out to be a nice way to slide into an upgraded set. I'd already seen it on eBay when the forum post went out about it. I'd been on the fence calculating values for what was there and slowly watching it go up. Figured if I didn't do the buy-it-now, someone else would as it wouldn't have been long before it got closers. It was past the half way mark in one day of a ten day listing.
