Wow. I'm used to these going for $200-500 in good cosmetic condition
and working order, but this one maxed out higher than I expected at $1026.

That is pretty damn high! But it's also the nicest condition I've
ever personally seen, I guess that had something to do with it.
Still, yowch.

Final eBay auction price aside, a beautiful piece of machinery. I
suppose some folks on this list own Teletypes in similar, almost
'virgin' shape.
Could this have been a restoration project?
Could it have been kept in a relatively "favorable" environment for many years?
Hard to say, I'd imagine, w/out asking the original owner. Seems to
have been apparently sold via proxy through an eBay reseller service.)
The buyer's caveat here is "Powers on, unable to test" in the auction
description. However, I'm sure it could be restored to working
condition, if it is not already.
