I am confused... Hey, Norm, this may be of interest Message #1 Posted by Vieira, Luiz C. (Brazil) on 27 July 2003, 1:43 a.m. Hi; I've been walking around e-Bay announcements and found these two:(I think Norm would like to check the first one) Well, I am somewhat lost about both prices: the first one is almost 15% of the second one... What is an HP34C worth? Images are associated to links; please, just click them to see e-Bay's item. Luiz (Brazil) Edited: 27 July 2003, 1:46 a.m.

HP-34C Hi Luiz, Message #2 Posted by Norm on 27 July 2003, 4:02 a.m., in response to message #1 by Vieira, Luiz C. (Brazil) Hi Luiz, If a 34C is busted to bits, and good to try and put the bits back into the injection molder and make a new calculator, then its probably good for about $50 on eBay. If it has a charger, a furry case, and it works, its probably worth about $100 . Those auctions seem to have the cardboard box and all the manuals. If the calculator works good, either of them might fetch $200 - $260. Appreciate the update, but I was not going to buy any HP-34C right now. After all, I can't own all of them !! Not 'til I find my way out of this recession. Anybody seen any good engineering jobs lately ? Or maybe its time for me to join the boardroom, and get my key to the executive washroom. I could go with a 7 figure salary, and it should be easy enough..... all I would have to do is discontinue products that are sole-sourced and selling well, oh yeah, and cook the books at quarterly earnings time.

I see... 8^) (n.t.) Message #3 Posted by Vieira, Luiz C. (Brazil) on 27 July 2003, 11:17 a.m., in response to message #2 by Norm

(Brazil) The key to the difference in price is the spelling of "calculater" in the first item's title. It didn't answer a title search for "calculator", and hence had fewer bidders.
