If the machine is indeed in working order, considering that this is a recent model (probably a series 3, looking at the loop restorer) with a F1 lens, the price is right.

If the machine is in working order, the price is good if it stays there, the auction is not over yet and this listing disclaimer, IMO, raises some concerns…

“been in storage and out of use for some time, and may require a thorough interior cleaning of the contacts and electrical components to be in tip-top order if you anticipate putting it through a heavy bit of work.”

That could be expensive.

That is the right price for that projector. Maybe a little low possibly..since it does have a manual for the 16mm Elmo Machine as an added bonus!

When I posted this thread I thought it would go higher but the price stayed the same. there were no without any additional bids within the last 5 hours of the auction, wow!

If it's in good condition the buyer got a good deal.
