Unless of course, it's a mint MP2100 in a junk shop for $5.
I got stung when 21 for $AUD 1300 in the stupidest way possible. A forged
cheque from a bank that didn't exist (anymore). They must put something in
the water in Australia. I look on it as an expensive (but probably
worthwhile) lesson now.
Cheers,
Damien
