"I
believe I paid $299 for the "basic parts kit" when I got mine off
ebay from obtronix. A few afterwards went for about double that, and up
to $1000 for a fully tested and assembled kit. Very well done, any
ideas what happened to "obtronix" and why no more? "
This is good information.
Actually it's not, at least in regard to the original question, which
is what the clone is worth today. What they sold for when they were
available new has essentially no bearing on that question, since they
haven't been available new for some time.
