Curta Type II has a grey body, metal crank and clearing ring it comes complete with it's metal case which has its original "O" ring and support rubbers - I have owned the Curta from new, I am the only person to have used it to do trig calcs when I was a Jig and Tool designer

Not that I could afford to buy it, but just wondering, how much are you asking for it?

Hi Roger

Thanks for you interest, I,m asking around the thousand dollar mark - thats about £630 pounds sterling, P&P costs I'm not sure of.

Thanks.

Using Jacks rating page, how would you classify your Curta?

Reading Jack's article my Curta falls inline with his description of Very Fine.

My price of $1000 is small change compared to the prices Jack has on his site

Yeah $1000 seems very reasonable. I'm surprised you have not been able to sell it for that price. If I hadn't just bought a Type I, I would certainly be inclined, but I can't justify spending another $1000.

Your the only person who has shown an interest, and requested a selling price.
