The country of the sale, not where the machine was made. Prices count the recorded sales of identified models, parts and accessories left out, on 320 auction sites, a sale listed twice once, in euros at the exchange rates of the day they were computed, rounded, before the buyer's premium and VAT; a row needs ten sales. "Found a buyer" counts the 134 sites that publish the lots that failed to sell, from twenty lots up; withdrawn lots are left out. Updated 2026-11-10.
