Advertised as professional chess computer. According to the seller, this chess computer's original price was 95 Euro
I remember I saw it for less than 25 Euro, but I may be mistaken.
What a bargain.....
Careful regards,
Axel

the more the exaggerated claim ..the worse the computer on ebay usually
also..whenever you see exclamation points in an auction title like this...!!!!!
then it is usually also junk
one of the rarest computers i ever saw offered on Ebay was a Fidelity Decorator Challenger..a huge wooden computer
a real collectors item
the auction had almost no description and the title of the auction had but one word...which was..
Schachcomputer.. Regards

now here is no junk auction Alex
of course the Mach III is supposed to have a box and not a leather carry case (which came only with the Designer Mach IV)
but i guess only a hardcore collector would complain about that

I'd rather have the carrying case by far then some poorly pressed paper with pretty colours and a couple of pictures on it
An Open and Shut Case Regards,
