I find it pretty funny when seller include screenshots or pictures of similar machines with ridiculous asking prices. Anyone can price anything at any price...

Martin, I agree. That is very similar to what I used to encounter years ago when I was in the antiques business. I would go to "buy" something and the seller what tell me what he or she "saw" another one listed for on ebay or at an antiques mall.... I would politely say "cool" BUT "what did it actually sell for?"Mormon S wrote:I find it pretty funny when seller include screenshots or pictures of similar machines with ridiculous asking prices.

The selling price is really the only reference point we're all interested in.

To the previous poster, great link, though. A nice L-Door is always worth acquiring at a fair price.
