Default Why Did They Do THIS??!! (Rare Centuri Kit)

I hope this is not a member here, but I just about choked when I read the following eBay listing:

http://cgi.ebay.com/Centuri-ARCON-S...=item4153ad21e3


This WOULD have been a very nice collectable for someone (and still would be an interesting item, as is). BUT.... if you read their item description, apparently this VERY early Centuri Arcon (early to mid-1960s) was STILL SEALED before they "opened only to take pics" !!!!!!! Ughhh!!!!

Well, quick lesson in how to slice about 50% of the value off what would have been a fairly rare collector's kit.

Jimi D. if you are reading this, care to speculate about how much money this Ebayer just tossed out the window?
