Nice!

A few years ago before Boeing Surplus went away I lucked out and found
an HP-67 sitting in a shopping cart behind the checkout counter. I
assumed it was something that'd already been sold, but I asked the
cashier and she said that it wasn't. I asked how much, and she said
"How's $5 sound?". Sold! I scrounged around in the cart and found the
A/C adapter as well. I don't often get that lucky :).
Card reader needs to be rebuilt but I'm hesitant to open it up since it
involves removing the rear label. This one's in such good cosmetic
shape I worry about damaging it. (And honestly these days I don't know
if I'd use the card reader that much anyway...)
I also have an HP-65 which appears to be broken beyond repair, alas...
