Haven't seen any offers to sell yet.  In the securities business aren't these 
sort of actions called "derivatives?"  Would someone pay more for the 
position than the current holder of the position originally paid Elecraft? 
Production run positions could be traded on an open market like eBay or 
Craigslist or [gasp] the NYSE.


Another view might be that the seller would receive emotional income by no 
longer having to agonize over delays, and relief that his/her deposit monies

had been recovered, thus no premium charges might apply.

Even if this market opened up, there might be a small number of orderers who 
would rather complain than either wait or dispose of their position...and they 
may receive emotional income from that stance.

I thought they'd be called "futures", since they're actually for a product, 
not a security like a bond or stock.

[Elecraft] K3 Derivatives

2007-09-01 Thread Fred (FL)
It's like " I went to a METS, ST. LOUIS ball
game at their stadium, but had no tickets.  A
a scalper from out of a dark alley - said
" wanna buy a standing room only ticket?"
I said yes, I went to the ball game, but alas,
I had no real seat.  So there was some inconvenience,
but I did get to see the game.  PS - the
METS won, St. Louis'ians fans were furious.

de, Fred N3CSY
PS - paid a 20% premium for ticket, seemed fair
