Title: RC 81 Original 4 sale
Post by: BONOVOX on January 25, 2012, 06:11:31 pm
Just saw this listed on Ebay.
Guy says its all original.
Wonder why handle is missing and the bezel was redone?
As well, why are some pics of the machine IN the crate, the others are OUT?

What do you all think?

If you were gonna try to sell something for almost 10k, wouldn't you provide more info, documentation, pictures etc. in order to sell it? Looking at what pictures there is it shows the right patina, however something looks fishy in my opinion.

I might believe its original since its unrestored. but would never buy without looking at it.

        It's 100% original, I picked it up and shipped it to the current owner who is also a member here. The handle was left off for crating purposes.
        If someone has the funds to buy it, I'm sure the seller would be willing send him all the pictures and documentation he needs upon request. No need to go overboard on pictures for an initial listing, as real players will know what questions to ask.
