content: Are the pictures you posted from the auction itself? When the desk looks different on several pictures and the seller does not know how to put the rubber holster on the 30M, I feel always a little bit scary. But I don't want to frighten you! ;-)The good thing is, that you get the same holster in new, even nowadays, as it is identical to the model "2+" and "World". Unfortunately, nothing from Gossen Metrawatt is cheap!Is this a collector thing for you or does the 30M something special you need or prefer to have?Nevertheless, I keep my fingers crossed, that anything goes well and that you are satisfied in the end!!!Cheers!PS: Do you still have the original link to the auction? Even if its over, you still should have access to it - just curious, where the seller lives...

content: yes pictures from auction ... yes has some doubts, still actions possible if its a dudupon my request he sent me internal picture of the battery clips i asked to see if there was some leakage, apparently there was not ...and remove the cells prior shipmentfor the holster, i do have 2x brand new ones dark/forest green just in case, from USA, and yesthey cost a lot in any of their accessories...Siemens b1105 is light gray, and Dranetz is blue (a beautiful blue loll), i do watch the 2+ bright green ..... mmmmmmm drooling, sadly not the bright orange i would have looooooved so much lollI did found an SI-232 interface in germany too for 80 euro + shipping 30 euro, i should have it this week ... it was on another very popular deutch ads/ buy/sell web site, sorry their name does not register in my brain lolland i have USB-HIT from my Drantech PMIT kit and softwares from Dranetz and the one from Gosseni'll be able to do monitoring, i have some things to check, so far tried with 28s "310000 counts" but misses some precision vs resolution lollThat's why the 30m will come handybut yes this unicorn was my plaything / obsession .... I search every day for some Gossen stuff (ok i'm crazy loll), but now i do think i have all i needs, mmm i thinkAs far i've found, once people get them, they don't re-sell themunless they really don't know about them, as i boughti'll post the real pictures once arrived ...And once the wallet is happy, i'll quote to make some 28s and 30m being calibrated ... before covid it was 160$ CAD for 28sand i still have one last obsession, a Prema 8017 .... loll anyone lollI love those square bulky clunky looks .... same as the Metratop 51 i haveFor the seller location : for sure it was not far from ShipGerman main site ...

content: As Paul Harvey used to say "Now you know the rest of the story""IT LIVES"After over a year (older posting looking for help restoring 8017) my Prema 8017 lives again with a new SSD.Over a year ago I posted looking for someone that wanted to work on a 8017 in trade for another non-working 8017, that's when Konrad got a hold of me. Konrad lives in Germany but travels to the US every so often. Short story, after much work he got both working with CF flash replacement and returned to me. Konrad thank you and job well done. As stated my original intentions were sell or trade the working 8017 as I'm not a collector and already have Agilent 6.5s which satisfy my needs. But, I have to admit after playing with it again after 20 years, I'm now fence riding. Besides Konrad included a spare CF when this one craps out, which should give me another 20 years.I love the built-in polynomial manipulation capabilities amongst its other abilities and the display is excellent. This board made all this possible, thanks to all.Gene

content: Hi all,@Gene: Thank you for the endorsements and I'm happy that the 8017 brings you joy! Even though it took more than a year, the "transatlantic" repair was a fun experience@coromonadalix: Don't bother with Kleinanzeigen. Unfortunately, they have a huge problem with fake offers. Every time something pricey gets sold on Ebay, you can find it on Kleinanzeigen for a much lower offer with exactly the same pictures. At one point I stopped reporting those due to the masses of fakes and now I also stopped using that portal altogether. Every time I found something interesting there, it turned out to be a rip off. I'm sure your MetraHit 30M will unfortunately keep popping up on that website.Cheers,Konrad
