32s ii Message #1 Posted by jasper wei shangxiong on 5 Sept 2002, 8:50 p.m. i noticed on ebay that people are paying **WAY** more money than the 32s is worth! what is going on with that???? why the crazy demand?

Consider that the 32Sii is worth it to the people paying those prices. No one is making them pay those amounts, only that there is a shrinking supply and a demand larger than that supply. Have you tried to buy a new pocket size RPN calculator lately? It is the only unit out there. I think devoted RPN fans are buying "one more spare" just in case.

Re: 32s ii Message #3 Posted by Christof (Davis, CA) on 6 Sept 2002, 2:28 a.m., in response to message #2 by Randy Sloyer(US) Heh- I've managed to overdo my "one more spare", perhaps. I'm still scared to use my 42s much, it's basically irreplaceable at this point.And I don't use the 32Sii enough because 384 steps is a bit too limited for calc/stats/chem/psych research all at the same time. I wonder when the 20S will start having a major price hike... -C (and again I am about to go into my eternally cyclimg 41/42 vs 28/48 debate. I need one of the architectures to win, and if the 42s had serial, it would have by now. I don't use graphing much. And if I had a 41 with all the bits....)
