    Remember this machine from Etsy? It had been priced at 10,001.00. Well- the price has gone up. Better hurry!

    What exactly would constitute a "serious offer" when the suggested price is ridiculous?

    If it had said "Serious inquiries only", I would have emailed and asked them "$895? Are you serious?"

    " it is shocking to see such a preserved cabinet" I have to say the price is far more shocking. To be fair, they do warn you it's the most expensive (i.e. over-priced) in the world. But it's got real "petina" in it, whatever that is (not in the dictionary) it has to be unique. It's also one of those rare model 66 with the even rarer missing slide plate. Wow!

    How do you think this person (and all the others) come up with the ridiculous asking price???? Where would they find any of these machines selling for this price to base their asking price? The shame of it is that if someone knowledgeable tries to educate them on an appropriate price, the sellers usually become defensive and sometimes use language that makes you want to ask them if they kiss their mother with that filthy mouth.
