 <<The days of finding a bargain price on a Tron or Chamberlin would seem to 
be gone for good>>

The reason we're going to be building new trons is just this.  A beaten up 
machine costs nearly 2000GBP BEFORE restoration.   A realistic price for an as 
new machine with twelve months guarantee should therefore be 3500+GBP and you 
still have the shipping costs to add in plus customs.  A new M400 will be 
around 3000GBP plus carriage.  This would appear the be the way forward.  Don't ask 
about MKIIs.  The five we have are all sold and the last purchase price we 
paid would scare the dead.  Think in terms of 12000GBP for a restored machine 
and you might just be close..ish!

Best,

Martin
