Pat,
The Beaulieu 708 EL is a very nice projector and, in my opinion, the Xenovaron 1.1 lens and the 2 -2000' reels are worth the starting bid on this auction.
However, this unit might be next to impossible to repair. Reading the description leads me to believe the seller might know exactly what’s wrong with it and probably tried to have it repaired.
A qualified technician and part for these machines are next to impossible to find and if a technician could be found, the repair cost might be prohibitive. The Beaulieu 708El is over 30 years old and there are not many left around. The last one sold on eBay (Germany) was back on October 2011 and brought in 356 Euros. That projector was in excellent condition looking at the feedback left by the buyer.
