There has been a bit of discussion lately about what trons are worth, etc.

It is interesting to note regarding a couple of items that were recentlyoffered up on ebay:

The M400 with Protect-a-Muff had a high bit of $2550 and did not meet reserve.This is the one with the damaged keys and several photos. I would have thoughtit might get a few more bids and have gone for more.

A Chamberlin M1 was offered up twice. The first time the high bit was $2000and the reserve was not met. Well no big surprise there. The second timeit was offered, the high bid $6150.99 and again the reservewas not met!! Wow!

Draw you own conclusions, but coupled with others reporting high prices,it would seem that these things are getting more and more valuable. The daysof finding a bargain price on a Tron or Chamberlin would seem to be gonefor good.
