A great price for a 54831D with all the probes, but...

A fantastic price if working, especially as it comes with 4 1165A probes and the MSO probe as well.

However, I'm wondering why CH4 is obviously skewed. Also the falling edge on CH3 is suspicious as well.
Self calibration hasn't been done since 2013.
Well, at least they did the keyboard and knob test; that's important!  :P
And this is Lecroys ebay outlet, you'd think they'd know better!

CH3 looks like probe compensation because the rising edge isn't kosher either. It is a nice scope but I don't like the 640x480 display combined with digital channels.
There are small lies, big lies and then there is what is on the screen of your oscilloscope.

Yeah, you're probably right about the probe comp. Looks like someone bought it shortly after I posted that. Must be someone that reads here... ;)
