I find exactly the opposite, they are cheap in Upstate NY. We do find them priced high here, but they don't sell. I have bought many for $20-$50. Last summer I bought a really beautiful one for $50, and probably could have gotten it for less. The seller had tried to sell in her garage sale, but...no sale. She just wanted to be rid of it. I have seen treadles on CL for years @ $85...no sale.
