Curt, This has been for sale for over a year. It has been heavily and poorly restored and worth far less then the asking price. A friend has two of them.

I put it under machines, since it seems to be a machine. I didn't know it had been for sale for so long - are these real or fantasy machines?

I guess this is really "something no one else will have"... since, apparently no one wants it...

Actually Curt, on the contrary. These Buddha machines are very rare and desirable. However, like any rare (or not) machine, condition will play a major factor in it's worth.
Because this particular example has been so heavily restored....it will only appeal to a certain crowd. By the way, there are at least three variations of this machine.
As mentioned, a friend has two of the variations. Here are few on line as examples....
