Hi These do seem to be fetching more on ebay, if thats anything to go by. The Sankyo machines also are fetching much more now. If its a late 810D which has a wider black front lamphouse cover you should get around £130.00 if its mint & boxed. If its the older 810D with a thin black lined lamphouse around £75.00. I paid £200 for a mint 824D (much the same as yours but all black & better lens) in the box, but the 824D machines in mint condition are quite hard to find being a later machine.
My first real sound projector was the 807D as seen here on ebay. 160094425108 It also had a manual recording level control and was offered up with a 75 watt lamp. I quickly changed the 12 volt lamp to the usual 100watt type and it ran on these for years. Gave many a film show with this for years and it was very good for standard 8 as I used to like the clear click click noise from the claw.
Hope this helps. [ March 12, 2007, 06:53 AM: Message edited by: Lee Mannering ]
