Re: Re: BC250d sale value?

But is that the average going price or just a really great deal you got?

This scanner is not a reprogrammable scanner and will only work in small areas that are still using 108MHz-512MHz range and that do not use the 800MHz band.  So even if you had the digital card you still would not get much for this scanner.  I would believe that $100-$150 would be about the best you will get for this even though it was $350 brand new.  If you can find someone to give you more I would jump on the chance because the closer it gets to the total rebanding project being done the less you will get for this scanner.
