I know it is a high speed HPGL/2 capable plotter and I would really
like it but $2000....
They're really, really nice plotters; I've had one for many
years. There's a 68K inside!
Anyway, $2000, the seller is smoking crack. It's worth
$50-150 tops, assuming it's in good shape. These are all
over the surplus market.
This model seems pretty rare in the UK. I havn't seen one like this on E-Bay
but I would have thought $200 was acheivable. I can't remember what I paid
for the HP7475A but I think it was around $100. No box but it does have a
cover and manual.
