I think someone pointed out weeks ago that the working units bring a lot less
money on the open market (a.k.a. eBay) than complete but unassembled kits.
To me, it makes sense to take the $100 for the unassembled kit and buy an
assembled unit for $30 as previous posts suggest they cost, if you really want
the unit. My initial impression was that the original posting was from someone
wh really didn't even particularly want the assembled/working unit.

"OTOH if
the kit is common and working units rare, reverse it."
What? How do you "un-solder" a kit and leave it looking new?
Reverse my advice, ie build the kit to make hopefully one more working unit.
