That sure is expensive, and showing its age too. Personally if I had money to spend, id have waited until a better condition unit came along.

Congratulations.  :)
The 664's are becoming increasingly scarce these days.
Good to see it going to someone that has always wanted one, and finally the day has come. Enjoy.

Cheers,
Shane

That's a very high price, especially considering the amount of yellowing on the keys and the fact that you will most likely need to invest a further €30 for a new membrane. But it's your choice and your money.

€190? Ouch! Ouch!


Still, as with all things and especially retro stuff if it's worth your €190, it's worth it. Have fun!

What things are worth to someone is very relative.

I doubt many people would pay what I've payed for my CPC plus.

But a man has got to have a hobby, and the CPC is the only hobby I have that cost money, so I think it's fine to go nuts every now and then.  :)
