OT: FYI...Red dot HP 35 with rom bug on TAS

[Gene Wright]

Red dot

Pictures show manual, AC adapter, case, etc. Looks in good shape and has the 2.02 bug.

FWIW.

Calculator appears to be legit. Accessories (ac adapter, manual, hard case) are from later versions, however.

[Lincoln R.]

Just curious, what tells you that the hard case is from a newer model? The only difference I've ever noticed is the address, i've seen some later ones with a Corvallis, OR address on the label.

I have the original hard cases for my 35 V1 Red Dot as well as for my 35 V3, and the moldings on the interior are different.

Sorry, but the price is double of that what I "usually" pay for RedDots.

[Michael de Estrada]

Maybe the seller heard you, since the price has been reduced. Still, it's more than twice what I paid, and mine is 100% original. It also includes the cardboard box it was shipped in directly from HP to the original owner, who then sold it to me. I even have the printed invoice from HP to the original owner with name, address and serial number, such that it is completely authenticatable. Amazingly, the original owner lived in the same city for the nearly forty years between the time he bought it and sold it to me. And no, I'm not interested in selling it at any price.

It's still more than 14 times what I paid for mine.
Sometimes zooming through blurred images of wrongly described items and taking some risk is deeply rewarding! ;-)
