When I saw the modest size of the Wheelharp from Antiquity Music, I was thinking $3500-4500, but then it came with a $14,900 price tag. They launched a KS campaign, asking for $50,000 in 30 days. Of course the marketing fell flat and they came up short of hitting even $9,000. It needed more time, a stronger social media presence, and a much more reasonable price for an unproven oddity.

I bought a pair of these during the holiday sale season, thinking I could flip one or both for a little cash. NOPE. Even at $100 off retail, I couldn't get any action. When I tried the offer route, all I got was BS lowball offers hovering around $400-500.

I assume the DI and the Space Station are referring to the current collectors price, and not the blow out "no one wants these" prices?

Yea at least for me and the Space Station. I'd drop like $200-maybe $250 on one, but $500 can go fucking pound sand.

That's the last I've seen maybe 2 weeks ago on eBay. I feel bad not buying one for $300 now like a year ago just to flip. That price is just going up.
