Title: Where to buy TI-62 and TI-95?
Post by: Spyro543 on November 13, 2011, 02:10:57 pm: I've looked on eBay and Amazon, but I just cannot find the TI-62 Galaxy and the TI-95 Procalc for a "buy it now" reasonable price.

Anyone know a (American) website that sells these calculators?

You even want the non graphical calcs in your collection? O.O That's gonna be a lot of calcs.
Also: http://www.ebay.com/itm/TI-62-GALAXY-PROGRAMMABLE-SCIENTIFIC-CALCULATOR-NEW-BOX-NO-RESERVE-TI62-/280771868042?pt=Calculators&hash=item415f4eb58a
I would keep an eye on that one.
Wow. he prices of the 95 go up to 300+ dollars. WOW.

Might want to keep a look on this. You probably have a good chance with it.

EDIT: wow, same link :(

Post by: DJ Omnimaga on November 13, 2011, 02:40:28 pm: Sadly you won't find any elsewhere than Ebay or Amazon (even there you might be lucky to find one).

Those calcs are extremly rare, and the rarer something is, the higher the price. I'm surprised Stefan found one this cheap.

Post by: Spyro543 on November 13, 2011, 03:41:49 pm: I'm actually now looking at the TI-66 which is available on eBay with a "Buy it now" price.

Post by: mustangfan72 on January 23, 2012, 06:52:55 pm: Hi, I'm new to the boards and only joined because I actually have a used TI-95 Procalc with printer and original guides I'm trying to sell. I'm not sure if the original poster is still looking to purchase one, but here is a link to my Craigslist ad. I'm sorry if this is against the forum rules. Moderators, please remove the link if I am in violation of any policies. Thank you for looking.

Post by: Spyro543 on January 23, 2012, 06:54:48 pm: How much are you going to charge for it?
Title: Re: Where to buy TI-62 and TI-95?
Post by: mustangfan72 on January 23, 2012, 07:02:16 pm: I'm asking $285 for the entire kit, including case, printer, ROM/RAM cartridge and manuals. I'm not 100% sure of the value because I really couldn't find much information about the calculator online, but I'm pretty sure they are rare. Ebay had some wide ranges for prices, so I can negotiate if you have an offer. What price were you thinking?
Title: Re: Where to buy TI-62 and TI-95?
Post by: Spyro543 on January 23, 2012, 07:28:56 pm: Hm, that's more than I can afford. But those are rare calcs.
Title: Re: Where to buy TI-62 and TI-95?
Post by: mustangfan72 on January 23, 2012, 07:33:13 pm: Well, I pretty much just found out a couple days ago what I really had all these years stored away in a box. I'm not emotionally attached to the thing at all, just trying to raise some money for a new computer. If you want, make me an offer and I'll see what I can do.
Title: Re: Where to buy TI-62 and TI-95?
Post by: DJ Omnimaga on January 23, 2012, 07:44:55 pm: YEah for those calcs you better charge enough for them (although make sure to charge around what others charge for theirs), else the person might just sell it back for higher if he doesn't have much interest for it.
Title: Re: Where to buy TI-62 and TI-95?
Post by: imo_inx on January 23, 2012, 07:47:55 pm: I'd buy it... If I had money...
Title: Re: Where to buy TI-62 and TI-95?
Post by: mustangfan72 on January 23, 2012, 07:49:22 pm: Just realized I might be violating forum rules by publicly listing the prices, not really sure. Is using private messages the etiquette around here? Still new, sorry.

Post by: DJ Omnimaga on January 23, 2012, 10:53:54 pm: It's fine per the current forum rules (note: the up to date rules were only posted in English so far). The old rules disallowed selling stuff on the forums, but tolerated calculator-related sales discussion.

The only kind of rule there can be is that Omni is not responsible if any form of calc purchase/sale/transaction done between forum members goes wrong or something. Or if someone registers only to advertise his own calc site, random products that haven't anything to do with calcs (such as casinos or pharmacy), or if an account is a spambot.

Post by: mustangfan72 on January 24, 2012, 10:00:52 am: Ok, thanks for the info. Should I start my own thread trying to sell my TI-95 or just keep it in this one?
