Uncommon, certainly. But rarity isn't always the primary factor driving
price. Sometimes it's desirability. Apparently, enough people covet this
machine to pay 4 figures for one.

A 9825a is rare? I couldn't find anyone interested
in one with a down
power supply last year. Sold for 500 on ebay

There is a gentlemen in New Jersey willing to sell
his HP9825A
I believe he is the original owner. It has 4 ROM cartridges (that go in
the front) and several data cartridges for the slot on the top left.
He is asking $2000 but can probably negotiate (as he didn't find any
takers
in VCF East). As far as he knows, everything
still works (LED lights came
on when he powered it up a few months ago).
I've met this seller and can vouch for him, but I don't know much about
this particular item.
I have some photos of it at the bottom of this page:

I may try a VCF forum topic about it. Just trying to help him find a good
home for the equipment. E-mail/reply direct and I can provide some
contact
info.
(BTW not sure if my cctalk posts are working anymore??)
