Re: Also, brand new HP-80 for $1289 Message #7 Posted by Michael de Estrada on 13 June 2009, 8:41 p.m., in response to message #6 by Mark Edmonds
For me, the only model that might justify such a price would be an HP35 type 1 RED DOT, assuming it was absolutely new and complete. Also, it would assume the owner had the good sense to remove the battery pack before storage. I paid the original owner of a complete RED DOT $700, and it included all the original accessories, the shipping box, invoice with his name, address and calculator S/N, unopened paperwork, and HP apology letter for the ROM bugs. The calculator is in excellent condition with only minor silver trim wear and display scratches. One key has lost some of its click probably due to a cracked snap dome. So, a perfect RED DOT, assuming such an animal exists, might be worth twice as much.
