[time-nuts] DTS-2077 Very Cool Toy!

[Ed Palmer]

Yes, it's like anything else - different models, different sellers, 
tested or not, different ideas on the value of the box.  I've seen 
prices for DTS models from about $600 and up, although there's a 'U.S. 
only' lower-end unit selling for $300 that looks like it's working .  By 
the way, these things are big and heavy so shipping to the UK would be 
ugly.  It seems like most of them are in the U.S.
