39gs why so cheap

[gavenkoa]

Encouraged by this thread I looked for a cheap 39GS.

My purchase on Aliexpress was cancelled and refunded by seller - seems they are out of stock, the lot was just to lure shoppers... Wasted a week.

Then I searched eBay for a long time - the prices were high, and only few offers were there. Seems eBay hid juicy results from me, because returning to eBay after few attempts revealed some nice offerings.

Like 20$ for sealed in original package (with USB cable / CD and thick manual!!). I read comments and some told they bought many copies because now it is a rare bird. I did the same - 3x for me & kids ))

Included 4 alkaline batteries are covered with salt, which is soling, not fluid, so no damage for package content. CR2032 is alive (3.23V).

I also searched for CAS version, the lowest price I found was 34.95$ for 40GS, in ideal condition, no scratches, cover + batteries. Some cheaper options were with visible visual defects.

Delivered to Ukraine in 3 weeks (1 week was inside USA) via a reshipper agency.

Have a chance to enjoy calc as in childhood with Soviet MK-61.
