This is the same one from last week.

He should be dropping the price by $50 per week, minimum. I think that it would be miraculous if it went over $150.

I dunno. those XT's from the project gutenberg estate went for a lot.

Yes, I think that they sold in the $200-300 range, but don't you think that a good deal of that premium was because of their provenance?

Odd dates and such...was a bit of a mystery box...but rolled the dice when the price dropped to $175. 

It's the real deal all right.  Absolutely flawless condition...incredible tactile response...difficult layout.

First thing that struck me was how heavy it was...

And that is the smallest of the common Model Fs.

My F-122s weigh in at about 8.25 pounds!
