Where are these things all coming from all of a sudden? From '92 so has the blue logo, looks in great shape. Still, I'd rather buy a dirty one and clean it up for half price.

I think, given the current economy in the US, that a lot of businesses are looking to liquidate their old unused office equipment. I know we've sold off a bunch of our office furniture and antiquated supplies where I work.

Even for Christmas, I've never seen the sheer volume of model Ms (even the rare types) that we've been seeing since November. Prices are pretty good, too!

The last NIB mini I saw went for something like 187 dollars. Looks like there are people out there willing to pay the price. If I didn't already have one already......

webwit, do you remember which seller it was? I'd like to try to contact them directly. Im interested in getting a pair of M spacesavers.
