Various sellers names such as: fontainebleau123, applefan876 and bestbuy38 all list Alexandria, VA as their location. Seems rather odd that such a large group of HP vintage calculators would all of a sudden appear for sale from three different individuals in the same town. It just caused me to be curious, especially since the prices are at a premium.

I've no idea if thay are all the same person or not, but I've purchased items from each of them (or him? - or her?) in the past year and all have been smooth deals with nice products and no issues.

The most likely explanation, independent of if these are the same seller or not, is someone in that area sold off a large collection and the seller(s) bought them to resell on TAS; it's really quite common. Late last year, a Forum member sold most of his collection (normal story, getting older, no storage room, etc.) and within about 2 weeks the items showed up on TAS from several different familiar sellers. If happens more often than you might think. And thank goodness for that!
