How to purhcase a fully working HP41CX on eBay?

Very true! I too am very neat and organized with my calculators. I think it's one of the differentiating factors between collectors and hoarders. And I am well aware of the DSM and it's changes through time for insurance and political reasons I agree that's all BS. - but that's not the topic I presented - it was the psychological roots and implications of all this. For me at least it's a passion for something I enjoy - there is no desire to collect 'all things HP'. And some motivation to preserve part of that niche of computing history. And it freaks out most people to tell them I'm using a calculator that's 50 years old!
