Nope, not even close!!! I keep hoping I'm going to find one for $50 at an estate sale, but I guess I should start going to estate sales before I can assume that's going to happen! :roll:

I see them at the consignment stores...many times someone's Mom or grandmother pass and they consign them they have no idea what they are worth nor caer they just want to get rid of them. I have seen several in the last 6 months under 100.00 - Many items in the consignment shops are a lot cheaper than amazon or Ebay.

No, definitely not. There are many for sale on ebay that are a whole lot cheaper. Check the feedback score and that tells you who is honest.
