"Incredible 102 System 100 expander, like something straight out of a Tokyo shopfront display c. 1976, complete with the original price-tag. There are three marks on the top panel, and apart from that it really would be perfectly saleable as new (though it has no box, manual or accessories). The sockets are more bright and shiny than I ever remember them; it doesn't look like it's ever got dusty; the plastic protective bits are still on the outsides of the knobs; and the whole panel still looks like new no matter how closely you look. I suspect that I might be the first person ever to switch it on. Like most things that have been left covered up for 30 years, it wasn't quite 100% when first played - the filter cutoff slider was slightly noisy to start with - so it's being checked over and anything at all out of spec will be re-calibrated before sending. Japanese voltage and plug - close enough (we think) but not absolutely identical to US."
