Here you go, a chance to START bidding on a Mellotron for $3000.00. Note the description - if that doesn't make you comfortable spending that much on one, I don't know what will... well, perhaps this will - he doesn't even publish a photograph of it, rather he cadged one from the net.
"Mellotron not as shown As Is: It needs a paint job, all the parts are there, it will fire up and make some noise, But needs work. It comes with an extra tape cartridge, and tapes. This is for serious collectors only,(no tire kickers) if you know what it is and you want it, and you can afford it, than buy it!! There's only so many of these in the world, I don't really want to sell mine, but I have too. So if you want it, take it!! Price In U.S. Funds"

It appears as though no one has noticed yet... There's another M400 up on ebay, this one looks a bit more accessable. The minimum bid is $100 and there are still no bids as of yet. (Although who knows how high the reserve could be).

A choice quote from the description:

Cosmetically the cabinet is in very good shape. I painted it a cool purplish color over the ugly off-white color of the original. I personally like it better this way.


Bleah!

Speaking of eBay Trons

I have my 360 Systems Digital Keyboard up on eBay, with 2 Expansion Voice
Cards.

The strings are pretty similar to the Mellotron (18 violins).
