Last one that went auction-style on eBay went for
$1,178.00
When was that?
Do you have any details of the machine's config?
That's a pretty good deal for a 780 (IMO).

Thanks,

From that last picture, it looks like one of the plugs is five pronged,
and looks very similar to the 120/208V 30A 3? plug in one of the
pictures about the current 780 auction.
I can't tell if the other plug is a three or four pronged plug. It It
almost looks like a 3 pronged plug which I assume is a NEMA 5-15 or 5-20
which would imply 120V 15A or 20A 1?.

HAHAHA! I love their bid amount. I can remember that I paid $1,575.42 (+tax etc.) for my
T368C transmitter, because I was working in the GPS industry at the time, and I bid the
GPS L1 frequency in MHz. The second bidder just missed outbidding me, and I got it for my
maximum bid.
