Thats right, an item is worth only what one is willing to pay for it, doesn't matter what anyone else thinks, so long as the buyer and seller are happy!

There is a small group of us doing that on some items of common interest.

My G250 came with the Mk10, I bought it brand new back in 1989 when I first got certified, it is still going strong 20 years later
so if its properly taken care of you will definetly get your moneys worth out of it.

There was a bidding war between two newbies. One buyer had zero feed back, and another not much more. It's easy to find deals on ebay, this just was not one of them! Considering that the buyer will likely spend close to $100 to have it serviced, it would have been wise to purchase new.
As for the materials used in old regulators, these are regulators, not tanks. I don't want a metal second. It is heavy, and subject to corrosion! Obviously someone convinced these bidders otherwise! :blinking:

Ah yes, those lead mine, rusty old regs.....get rid of them all right now. They'll pull your teeth out because they're so heavy....but not before turning them red (or green) from all the rust inside.
