On or about 1960, I purchased fm duPont's discards, a used but operative Marchant, 8-place electric calculator. I never did use it. For for all these passing years, it has rested in my attic. In cleaning out that attic, I found it. It no longer is operative. On the back there is an attached plate which reads, "8D 101604. Has anyone any idea what it may be worth. Is there a market for such a behemouth? Thanks for your help. Ed I
have a Sanyo ICC 802D in near mint condition and includes all of its original accessories. The calculator has been listed on ebay. You may find it by searching ebay or copying the following link in your web browser. A collector will certainly find an appreciation for how well this calculator and its accessories have been cared for.

Hey Everyone I am looking for a Sanyo ICC-808D if anyone one knows where I could find one it would be greatly appriciated. You can contact me at Planglois@fairpoint.com
I have a Texas Instruments TI-5340 that's been on my desk in my CPA office since 1987. My original unit gave up the ghost in 2006 after a nearby lightning strike in 2004, and I was able to find another one 3 years ago. Now that unit is starting to do some strange things (calculates fine but prints incorrect numbers). I really love this machine because of the split design (the keyboard is seperate from the main unit) and it prints as fast as most current commercial calculators available today. (I can enter numbers faster than my other 2 TIs still here can take 'em!) Anyone out there have a working one lying around for sale? I'll even consider just the main unit as I'm still using my original keyboard. Feel free to email me at taxbillh@comcast.net Bill Herron
Hello everyone! I'm also looking for a Sanyo icc 808d calculator... If anyone is willing to sell his or can help me find one please drop me a line at: elwoodff853@hotmail.com many thanks!
Hi, I'm downsizing - heading for a slower semi-retirement life style and am getting rid of my "old" toys. I have a TI SR-10 and a TI SR-51A both in pretty good condition with a few extras. I'm charging them now hoping they'll work. Does anyone have an interest in them?
Hi, I have a desktop and I can't find any info on this one. Any help would be appreciated. It has "beda" and "800/k" on the front and the model# US 108K. It's electric, brown with green display. Any ideas what brand it is? Thanks!!
I have a Sharp EL-81 that was purchased new by my father around 1972. For may years after his death in 1973 I used it and then it stopped working. I have stored it all these years and was wondering if anyone knows of someone who could take a look at it and see if it can be repaired. My guess is that the problem is with the power converter. I would appreciate any help that you can give me.

Does anyone have any information on The Meiliake Calculator? I suspect the machine is pre-1940, but I would like to find real info about it. Thank you, g'
I have a Forward 6 Pocket Adding Machine. It has Art. No. 53/1994 on the cover. The cover is torn along the back and has a water stain on the front. It has a folding vinyl cover with the stylus in a pocket along side the machine. This belonged to my grandfather. Can anyone give me any history and or the value of this machine?
Hello! I found your 1997 article of discovery regarding the Troncet/Addiator. I am so glad to find one to whom I may pose my question:
I am currently constructing a Mathematical Compendium, and I would that it contain two addiators (Add and Sub of course) and so my question: How do I build a Troncet? I build first with card stock then transfer to wood and brass, do you know of any pictures of a disassembled unit or a working schematic? I hope you can help, as the internet offers so little in the way of real, usable information regarding the construction of ancient (or at least vintage) instrumentation Can you help me with the information necessary to construct a Troncet of my own? Thanks!!
James, Haven't spoken to you in years, probably since the AOL adding machine forum days. Hope you've been well. Glad to see your website is still up and running. What have you been up to? Would love to share more photos of machines I've collected over the last 25 or so years. Art Rosen
I am an ex comptometer operator and I would love to use one again for my daughters accounts. So I am looking for a manual Sumlock 912S or similar. I have lovely memories of my job as a comp., and was sent to Shell Refinery, War Damage Commission, MGM Film Studios Elstree etc. Joyce
After changing the battery on a Texas Instruments TI-503+, it has a negative image. The background is black and the numbers are white. How do I make the background white and the numbers black?
I have an old (goes without saying!) Comptometer 993s which I lovingly used all those years ago. Electrics still work but the keys are stuck. Anyone know if it can be repaired and if so where? Thanks
