HI,
Curta's are wonderful things. Generally the Type 1 is more expensive as it seems there is a bigger demand for it (Its smaller , its the original - everyone has there own reasons).

As with anything old, ones that are "like New" command a higher price as they have less wear on them and there are even less of them.

I assume you would prefer to buy one that is already in Europe. If you go the for sale section of the forum, WillB has several for sale. I would suggest contacting him for what he has and pricing.
