What does "no crazy prices" mean to you?

For a BNIP Mint, your not going to get it for a buck, I would imagine. You also need to understand that anyone who has a mint, NIP probably paid a lot for it themselves.

FWIW, it's sold for $320 on eBay.

The last used one sold for 99 USD, in january, with one bid. Seems about right to me. BNIP perhaps 1,5 - 2 x as much.

You won't find one used, with packaging, for $100.
But used, without packaging, for $100 is what I think you'll find. Gabe Fajuri has lots of Tenyo here (including many items not listed, and that's worth a phone call): https://quickerthantheeye.com/products/search |

The problem with 'used' Floating Ladies (that sounds akward :p ) are the possible scratches on the clear plate, which make it a hassle to perform when the lightning conditions aren't 'excellent' ... . Always make sure to ask for close up photo's of the trick when used condition.

Also be careful, but I have seen a number of these that are broken.

The mechanism ceases to function.

The first version I had was broken: I couldn't make the magic happen from behind/from the backside of the frame ... those who know the trick, know what I'm talking about.

I just bought one used from the electronic bay for 130 EUR. Used,good condition, packaging damaged. Will see how it performs, fingers crossed.
thx for all your tips and comments. I am nearing completion of my collection now... |
