I have exchanged a few emails with the guy selling a BC-312 which is
clearly modified on Ebay. While I believe his asking price of $225 will
keep a serious collector away, he will be trouble to deal with for the
unwary. Watch out for this guy:

I doubt anyone here would bid, since known working ones go for about $150+/-.

It isn't "complete" and it's been modified. Unless the mods are documented,
I wouldn't go over $100.

I bought my MINT BC-312N in 52. It didn't stay complete/mint for long, and
it was an excellent receiver for the day. It got me through my Novice year
and I collected QSL cards from all over the world on 80 and 40 meters with
my 6L6 xmtr (WN7SAT).
