No bad digits or segments, otherwise operationally
unknown. Appearance is VG (high-res JPEGs available). $25 plus shipping
without
manual (I paid $40 for an original manual). $45 plus shipping with
manual.
(Manual alone is $40 shipped.)
[Translation: I bought this damn thing, paid $40 for a manual, and STILL
could not get it to work. Better call it 'untested']
Well, no, although I can see why you'd think that. Real translation: I
already
had two perfectly good counters but had a thing for Nixie displays (as I
said
in the ad) so I got this one, then went looking for a manual because I
ALWAYS
get one for all my gear (which may not be rational, but the whole
boatanchor
thing isn't totally rational), found one, paid $40 for it, flipped the
counter
on to watch the display show random numbers, watched again a few other
days,
let the counter sit for a couple of years, and decided to sell it on the
same
basis that I bought it: a counter with a working display.
Don't let the shanigans of a few less-than-honest SOBs turn you completely
cynical.

Anyone would think that, from what you originally posted. You're
obviously an articulate person. Why didn't you give a few more details
initially?
I'll never understand this terse posting/listing by people who want to
sell things to complete strangers. On eBay it's especially irritating.
It's like the seller thinks he's talking to his best friend: "Hey bro.
Find a nice counter for ya. Goes to 200 Mhz. How about 50 bucks?"
Out here in the world of strangers we need a bit more detail.

Well, I can vouch for Avery on this one. I sold the counter to him and it did
indeed work when I sold it to him and I don't doubt it still does. Oddly, my
rationale for buying it and selling it was just like Avery's!
