Is $150 for a 42-1010 Worth It?
#3

Thanks for your thoughts!

If I do decide to go anywhere on these, it would be to go and kick the tires first on the BOL. What should I look for, especially in regards to the BOL system itself? Is there an obvious giveaway that something may be terribly wrong?

Admittedly I'm intrigued by the technology, so any price, I suppose, is "the right one" due to my curiosity, but that cat has led me astray too often. An older/wiser me has reservations about how much I might be looking to spend additionally to get things back up and running.

Are BOL's common to come across or is this a rare find? Are parts scarce?
