These Politypes are modestly sought-after collector items.  I don't think they have any use as industrial machines anymore - someone will correct me if I am wrong..  Prices in collector environments run about $300 for ones in good  working condition.

That is about right.    More like $300.00-$500.00 restored.  No parts are available.  Great little machine however.
