A rare and early machine. See this topic.

Yes I know it is rare and very early. Really want to sell it but no idea what it is worth.

I'd put it on eBay and the collectors will find it.

Not too sure about that. I need to know what it's value is first. Thought somebody on here might have an idea. Or even make me an offer. ... Can I put pics on here ? I can see lots of icons above but not sure which might be to add a picture or pictures. Ah ... might have found it. Will take a picture and attach.

Rare doesn't equal valuable necessarily. It depends on the condition, is the one-piece soleplate intact, is it discoloured, etc.

The thing about a platform such as eBay is it will bring what its worth in auction. Its market forces. It's only worth what someone will pay for it. If you're shipping (which you need to) be sure to click the Global Delivery options and that opens it up to US buyers as well (you ship locally though - they forward on.)

Yes the sole plate is all in one piece. . With mud guards, black tools, original plug, Feb 1992. No fading. No damage to transfers etc etc. It has had just the 1 owner since new. Meant to take some pics today but forgot. It really needs to be 'saved not sure too many genuine collectors on ebay.

When you sell it, post the link here, and a few pics, put it on a 10 day auction with a low start. It will find its way on to the various collector groups on Facebook and other places. I'll put it on our Instagram, FB and Twitter too. It'll find a home.

There is a chance I might be interested in this machine, however the fairest way to do it is through eBay if you want to get the fairest price for it.
