I put up want lists here, on KLOV, and on RGVAC.

I got a response on RGVAC from a guy saying basically he's got 2 x NOS ones, and what do I want to pay for them.

"errr  um...I dunno...."

...obvious is as less as possible right...but guys what would a pair of NOS robotron wico's be worth (ballpark) before shipping, so A I don;t get scammed, and B so I don't lowball and wind the guy up.

Is there anything I need to ask / know first before being scammed, I don't mean the guy, I mean the sticks.

For example

is there a particular code on the Robotron wicos, was there ever a reproduction run - if so anything I should watch out for/avoid.

All info appreciated.

Its almost impossible to get scammed price wise.. if the guy wants $100 for the set either your gonna buy em or say no.
Do you research on robotron joysticks , john installs a set in one of his videos.
