I want my belongings to be pristine, and I keep them that way, and that's the way I am.
However, this calculator caught my eye on eBay and I decided it was an unwanted orphan that needed some TLC, it was scratched up, the keyboard was filthy and scratched and it had no battery door.
I know.....
It did work though and I discussed with the Canadian seller what would work for both of us, because he needed to pay shipping, pay eBay and Paypal fees, and make a little cash. We worked out in Canada he could send via lettermail (you can send anything as long as it is light enough and fits through a 2cm slot) and an extra buck for fees and five dollars for him, so it worked out at ten bucks.
It has arrived and I have done work on it, my next post will be the resulting "throwabout" calculator for on my desk so that my pristine models can sit around and just collect dust.
