Anyone interested in selling a used model D?

I'll swap mine for some hen's teeth

This represents like a third the price of a Model D for a machine that is arguably 90% as good. If someone had the time and effort, one could probably make a tidy sum doing Model C arbitrage i.e. picking up Model C machines locally and selling nationally or globally on Ebay. Guaranteed to make at least a couple hundred and probably a lot more in some cases. The only thing that stops me from doing this is that the rowers are too darn unwieldy to transport and ship to make this a pleasant way to make a few bucks on the side.<br /><br />
