I have a guy selling a pretty good looking R442, but it is not tested to see if it actually works. I can't take it home and toss it on my MUTT, so.........
What's it worth as it sits?

Hmmm, I see pvtjarhead has them listed in good working condition for around $225 or so plus shipping. Still in business? Untested on ebay ranges from about $135 to $200 plus shipping but look in rough shape right now and from overseas.

90.00 is usually in the ballpark. The modules are removed in some, or the jumpers get removed. Modules can be found if needed, but sometimes at a premium. Just watch out for the greedy guys with worthless crap.
