Isn't there a legal notice period for impending works?

Look at that.... guy wants no less than 1,200 Euros for it !

Looking at the other ads of that guy he seems to think in another currency. :-DD
But over here there are more and more people too who think they could refund their energy bills by selling some old TE stuff twice above market prices. :scared:

Before this one, the last Tek curve tracer I can remember on this website was a 576/5777 solid state, " as is " for.... 2450 Euros IIRC ! :scared:
So I guess this guy thought " OK mine is an older tube version so I will ask half price, only 1,2000 sounds fair.... ". :popcorn:

Problem being... the guys who might interested in their TE, ALSO have a huge energy bill to pay, so they are now looking for HALF price TE, not DOUBLE price stuff !
So buyers and sellers just can't find a middle ground.... an ocean separates them.... a biiiiig ocean...

One of our TEA Fellows was kind enough to make me aware of this beauty...
https://www.ebay.de/itm/304727369255
Yes, I just bought one, but I need a spare one now of course, always need two of everything eh ?! :-DD
Will you be so kind as to not engage in a bidding war with my thin wallet ?
At 39 Euros starting price it's a worth monitoring...looks nice, works, and comes with two plug-ins.
That said I can't put a lot of money into it, especially since I paid only 10 Euros for mine....
I am hoping this old French thing not being as popular as HP of the same era... not many people will be interested to begin with... but just in case I prefer to post about it asking for your kindness...
If you are really as much in love with this thing as I am, and realllllllly want it.... OK maybe we can compromise : I will let you have it, if you pass me the 4 wire ohms plugin.... which is ultimately what I am most interested in. Of course having another meter for spares caqn't hurt... but if I have no choice, then I would favour the 4wire plugin.

Must be using the same price suggestion manipulation algorithm as ePay. |O
An example from a few weeks was an ancient 3.5 digit Solartron voltmeter.
If I start a listing with "Solartron voltmeter" and the model number it gives the following utterly stupid start prices. :palm:
For "used"
And "for parts not working" only 10% less.
This is why we can have reasonable priced TE anyone, let alone any bargains. :--
And if you try to find an example of that ancient 3.5 digit voltmeter under completed listings, you get no matches and these ancient & not-so-ancient 3.5 digit voltmeters instead. :-DD
