With about 21 hours left in the auction, this ivory 302 is sitting at an even $300.00. So, maybe $ 500-600?
No way.  The only reason it is up at 300 is because the top bidder was stupid enough to set a bid above the reserve. The highest bid after that was 199.

Hi,

Just saw this on eBay. And I know ivory 302's are rare, but is this a real one? They said to replaced the cords.

This could be an auction contest? Has a reserve of 300 usd.

The same user has a couple of Masterphones for sale, and I suspect that you experts might be more interested in those!  :-)  I'm interested but I'm not far enough along in my collecting that I'd be tackling them at this point.

And that's the way the auction ended. The buyer even wanted to make sure it was so by reconfirming with a higher final bid (amount unknown).

Sounds like somebody who might have missed a good Ivory 302 in a previous auction.  :-)
