You can say "Wow" if someone buys it from you for that money :D . Anyway it'll be interesting to see if you get this price.

The same thing (but used) went to a Spanish collector for 215€ recently. 

However, checking the other buyers, there was only one guy interested to buy for more than 30€. So unless there is another collector who did not bid yet, it might be more realistic below 100€

Offers it as "eingeschweißt" (still in original seal), but then goes and opens it and shows what's inside? Didn't he just destroy his asking price by doing that?

Bryce.

Edit: Ok, just read the description at the bottom. The photos of the open version are from a different one.

Software can be stored in any way, so I never undertood people, who collect this, but that's a personal taste.

This looks really great for something that came out in '85...

To be honest, when I look into the other retro computing forum 95% of the time I also absolutely don't understand why people are doing what they are doing. 

It's part of that hobby and I bet you can find a similar question for every single aspect this hobby. Some probably never understand, why to program a UI operating system for an 8bit computer. Some never understand why to make an internal RAM expansion for it.

But some do ;-) 

Let's cross our fingers for Gunhed that the other collector is willing to pay that price. Chances are good as he obviously was willing to pay 200€ for the previous item.

Poliander just sold it for 215 Euros and his copy was used.

Well, If I get money from it, then it goes straight into CPC support. When I had some more money (before Corona madness) I funded quite some hardware to be able to have a cheaper price for the customer.
