BTW- I would have had no interest in this machine even if it was only $100.

Late 1700's, Early 1800's? Was this owned by Marty McFly? The head and "Box Cover" are lost in in (meant to do that) his storage unit and can't take the time to look for it to take a picture for the ad. And what is up with that center drawer? It must not like time travel too much. And the white irons behind this make me a little ill.

Here is one. He's not far out of line for the machine and cabinet (this one can go for that much on ebay) but look at the prices for the attachments!

I've got the identical cabinet -the center drawer is really neat, however this one looks like it might be broken . . . It pivots out.

Do you think I can turn mine into a time machine? Maybe he's got Dr. Who's phone booth tucked back in there!

Sometimes, after looking at these listings, I have the UNCONTROLLABLE urge to write the sellers and tell them how much of an idiot they are!!!!
