Does this set appear to be priced a little high??

For what it is, yes. That washer is exactly like the 1982 Kenmore I had (later became the base of the Frankenmore); 3 water levels, 3 temperature combinations, 4 cycles (not counting wash times), 2 speeds, and a Penta-Vane agitator with manual-clean waterfall lint filter.

Out of all of the black-panel Kenmores, this particular control font style is my least favorite. I like the "block" graphics of the late-70's machines better.

The price is not bad if no one bids against you. They are basic machines and very durable.

Very similar to my parent's first washer/dryer pair, an '81 Kenmore with sudsaver.

Ours was harvest gold, and my parents bought it because Sears actually had a discount because of the color, heh.

I now remember when I was 6 or 7 I used to love to watch that thing work, and the sounds it would make.

Yes, too high priced, but the, again, who am I. The bidder will decide that.

Those machines are a dime a dozen.
