Me too. I think the 32S 50th is more likely to be appreciated by scientific professionals so they've gotten snapped up and help onto. The 14B 50th calculators are more "liquid". Wlodek wrote this in the early days of ebay, when the dynamics were quite different and there were fewer HP calculator collectors.
I agree, I only got a 14B 50th for a resonable price at ebay, so the "normal" one is still missing in my collection.
Same with the 32S at ebay, I bought a normal one in used condition with German manual for 40 EUR some years ago. About one or two years later I got a 32S 50th in excellent condition with German manual and 50th edition box for 50 EUR. I bought both calculators somewhere around 2005 and later, so in a time where the Pioneers, especially the 32SII went out of production and from the dealers stock.
I really miss the times (< 2003) where you got a 32SII in good condition for ~35 EUR or below. :)
