Using ROMFI - part 3, values, items existing & your items

[Sidewinder]

I saw in the excellent reference by Howard Hazelcorn that the rarity of the BM is R8 with only 1-3 known models existing. However this was pre-internet. I know of 4 BM's, and I'm sure there are a few more than that.

ROMFI has the feature where owners of a particular model can post it into the main reference page. This has 2 advantages
1.) people can see all surviving models
2.) one can keep a detailed list of ones collection



As you see above, there are also fields that summarise range of known serial numbers, an average price, etc

And also when one sees an item being sold one can note the price in ROMFI and so build up an overview of prices of an item. ROMFI also solves this in an interesting manner by asking the condition of the item so as to give a differentiated overview



However it does need a certain critical mass as you see in order to be useful. One has to give in order to get!

VIEW ITEMS

Here you can see pictures with serial numbers and some details of similar models like the main reference model.



(pity about the 279825 wreck! obviously one of the the $58 bad machines)

MY COLLECTION(only you can see this as its protected behind your user ID & password)

As you add items to the "Yes I have one" section in the individual product, a summary of your own collection is also created.



One can see it in summary form



as well as in full detail


If you sell an item out of your collection you can click the "sold" feature and this goes off your collection list into your sold items list.

I hope this helps!
