Hi everyone, I'm not getting out of the hobby but needing to come up with some money, as much as it saddens me I need to sell my Elmo. I bought it about a year and a half ago from John Capazzo. He replaced all the belts and included a bulb, so it was fully refurbished. I have used it I estimate 10-12 hours. I am including a new bulb and the working bulb that is in it now, a take up reel and even a film. The only thing wrong with this machine is that one of the cord winders on the back is broke, which wasn't a big deal for me since I did not use it. I am asking $200 shipped in the US for this fine machine but I will entertain offers.
Thanks

Glad you are not getting out of the hobby, but too bad you need to unload this machine! I have this one as well, exact same, with one of the cord winders broken off as well [Smile]

Must have been common! Mine broke after shipping, probably from the cold.
Great little machine and has given me ton of pleasure so far watching these gems!
$200 is a fair price imo for a good working one of these. Good luck with the sale!

Thanks, I think its a fair price when you factor in shipping which is around $40-$50
