Michael,
First off, this is a question you should ask the seller: Steve, KL7FZ. I only forwarded his e-mail to the amsat-bb as a courtesy.
But if you look at the date of the eham reveiw (2000), things have gotten more expensive over time. MY understanding this radio has not been in production for many years and is exceedingly rare on the used market. But, as always with used equipment, price is negotiable.
But, hey, I am just the messenger...not the seller. If you are interested, contact Steve and haggle with him. He's a regular e-bay trader and a friend.

Thanks Ed,
Of course, it was an innocent question and I did not notice the date of e Ham review. I appreciate your response. It sounds like a great radio and am not active on 1.2, but have been looking for ways to enter.

These radios consistently go for more than MSRP. The 220MHz versions go for almost DOUBLE what they originally sold for. They didn't make many of them, and the people that have them get top dollar for them. If you think it's too expensive, don't buy it. Jim KQ6EA

Like I said, my question was simply asking for additional information and I do not believe I suggested it was too much money. I am only here to learn. Thank you to those who helped educate me.

I have an IC-1275 and I can say that its a fantastic rig. They are extremely rare, and I found mine after a lot of looking. The entire x75 line (575 6M, 275 2M, 375 220MHz, 475 432MHz, 1275 23cm) has been out of production since 1991 or so. Sadly, Icom didn't make a lot of money on these rigs, owing to their high cost. Add that 220MHz rigs could only be sold in the US, Canada and Mexico, not many 375's were made. The 1275's are rare as well, since Icom didn't make many of them. I've never gotten real data from Icom on how many 75's were rare, but one estimate I got was around 100 375's, and 80 1275's. I'd love to know how accurate those figures are.
The bottom line? I love my 75's. ;-)
