[ian]

Nice enough examples, but bidding seems crazy to me .

The "Strats" usually go for a lot less, must be the matching headstock.

Yep strat with blue headstock is neat looking guitar, although mid 80?s Goldstars sell every week for half that price ? not knocking the sellers, they?ll be happy with those prices & good luck to them, ? just wonder about the wisdom of the bidding (shakyboys buys/sells lots of stuff, so should know what he?s doing) :-? .

Pretty steep indeed, though I must say I feel there's a trend developing over the last two years that has seen Tokais getting more and more expensive, especially the older ones.

Before you know it, they'll be more desirable than Gibsons

That blue Goldstar is currently $860 with 10hours to go ? the 82 LS50 Love Rock from mackelchea ("ochay") went for $880. Here?s a few others just ended (unsold ST60 looked at bargain at BIN $648) ?

1981 ST50 Springy $975 (Guitars101)
1980 ST80 Springy $1075 (Davidlevitsky1)
ST60 Springy $480 bid? Reserve not Met (resv=$648)
