All,

This machine is only about 30 minutes from me.  However, I don't think I'm too crazy in thinking the $4000.00 price tag is WAY high.  Realistically, what should it be?

I am reasonably certain he won't receive any bids and want to make him an offer.

It's eBay #6176179818

Thanks,

Wayne

Ditto on what Kito said. I think that it's pretty but overpriced by about $1000 or a little more.

I contacted the people who own it.  It's pretty close to me.  They didn't seem to know a lot about machines at all.  My guess is they saw some restored ones on the net somewhere for big $$$ and figured to start a little lower.  I told them about the value in the Walters book and made an offer.  I am waiting to hear their response.

You guys are really something!  Try not to laugh, but I offered them $500.  I told them about the value in the book, plus I made sure to remind them any potential bidder, regardless of the price, would have to pony up the shipping cost.  This would factor into a bid.  So, I offered them the $500 based on this is no restored model, there is no inside photo of the machine, no detailed description, and the shipping thing.
