These Elnas aren't really worth that are they? I think it's WAY high

My ebayfu claims $50 might be too high.

One in good shape is worth a bit less IMHO but they can be good machines. I had one for years and LOVED it.

I've one I'd sell for $70 but that desk is something else. If I had the desk I might make my Supermatic my go-to machine. No way to put a value on the desk.

Ohhh!!! I'm just listening to my heart! thump thump thump thumpity thump....

Edit: hmmm,... "I double check everything before shipping it out and cannot be held responsible for any damage caused or any loss in the package during the delivery process.
All items are shipped with a return address and have insurance for the value of the item or items. In the unlikely event of your items gone missing I will provide you with details of proof of postage, you will be responsible for chasing after the item yourself."

Misinformed seller. Only the shipper can pursue the carrier for restitution. Also he has to pack it right or the carrier WON'T honor the shippnig insurance. Caveat Emptor.
