Hewlett Packard Rappaport-Sprague Stethoscope

[FR Wrath]

Has anyone ever heard of this item? Apparently they are very expensive but I want to know why. Are they rare? My wife was just given one but a friend who paid $20 for it and didn't want it.

It looks like they can to on eBay for $500-$1000. Google around, they are in demand because they are no longer made and apparently the acoustics are pretty good.

Yeah I just sold it for $1200. Can't believe that!
