DUH!!! The lightbulb just went on in my head! After I bought a new Concerto,
I sold my 20+ year old R-13 for $600. My parents had gotten it for me in
college so I never thought about the ORIGINAL price. I just knew that I was
selling it quite a bit below what they are priced at now. I'm going to guess
that $600 is pretty close to the price my parents paid way back when. I never
realized that it actually held its value. Thanks for waking me up.
