Hi Gian,

Do you think it's a good projector?
According to the description, it's as new.
Which version is this one?
I don't see GS-1200's for sale often in my own country (the Netherlands, not Germany).

Judging by the loop restorer and the dots it looks like a version 1

Is it still a good price if it's a version 1?

Version one.
Definitively a good price, Hans.

Yep, definitely a version one machine. The forward loop on these machines can be a bit more problematic especially with optical films. I think this price for a ver one is a little on the high side.

Hi Kevin, hope all is good with you.

Hans sorry, I forgot to mention I was considering prices here in Italy. I would simply buy it because of the good price (impossible to find good ones for less than 1.000/1.200 here), but I already have two and a XENON coming soon!

It's good people here have different points of view. Kevin is absolutely the most respectable expert of Elmos here. So take his post into consideration before making any offer.

Ciao.

I didnt realise this with Version 1 machines, but the input roller is plastic (not metal). It does look in good condition though.
