Chamberlin 500 - possibly for sale

Chamberlin 500 - possibly for sale

2008-04-02 by Ken Leonard

Folks,

Someone contacted me about a possible sale of Chamberlin 500 SN. 
5005.  The item is in the Bay Area of California.  The condition of 
the machine is not known (it was working when put into storage years 
ago).  I do not know the seller, nor do I know this particular machine.

- If you are in the Bay Area and are capable of making an 
electronic/mechanical evaluation of the machine for the seller (the 
seller is considering putting this up for auction and would like to 
know its condition before doing so)

OR

- If you are SERIOUSLY considering purchasing this machine

...send me a private e-mail, and I will forward your contact 
information to the person who is in possession of the machine.  (I 
will not be involved in any transactions.)

(And, yes, I know the filenames are spelled wrong.)

Cheers,

Dave Kean's interview info from Richard says there were only 2 or 3 of these
made. El Rare-O.
