I am interested in purchasing a HERO1 (fro

The original asking price from 1979 - 1982 was about $1,500.00
I think $150.00 would be a fair trade. What do you think?
OK, I'll consider giving you $150 for it if it is complete, has all of the
manuals, and hasn't had any sloppy amateur quality soldering.
I think you have it backawards....AtomKey is LOOKING for a Hero 1 for $150.
Then again, my sarcasm-detector was buzzing ever so slightly ;)
Of course, from what I've seen the past few years on eBay, I think he's
missing a zero on the end of his price.
It seems they are as valuable today, as they were back then, if not more!
You VERY RARELY see one go for
under $500, and that is usually incomplete, non-working units that need
parts and repair to function.
