Someone is trying to fetch a good buck..... Nice Machine however and lots of original goodies.... The L&H Live Ghost in MINT(but no OG box) may be worth 60+ [Smile]

Cheers,
Matt

This machine has been on e bay for quite some time now.
The price suggests it is new and unused in its original box c/w polystyrene inserts etc etc but clearly this is not the case.

Once again another nosher trying to get stupid money for something he or she doesn't appear to know too much about. Unless there's a looney out there it could be on ebay for a while to come. [Big Grin]

No evidence that it is 'new' or even 'as new'. It might well be in good condition but the price is not justified. Close up pictures of the gate showing no wear might help.

New?
So how did the box get into such a poor condition?

Flood damage and only dropped once [Big Grin]

mmmmmm interesting [Roll Eyes]

It would be better to post a short video of the projector going "with film" doing its thing... and showing the operation of all the controls, plus lots of close-ups [Wink]
