I just won a EBAY auction on the purchase of my first imperial. I have wanted one of these ever since I first learned they exist. It's not perfect but it looks like it still has the original cords in fair shape.

I wanted an imperial for years too. I have gotten two in the last couple months. Not as inexpensive as yours though. You got a deal.
I watched that one for a week. It went to the last minute without a bid. I couldn't believe it!
I had no competition. I waited and placed a bid the last ten seconds and won. I saw both of your purchases, it just made me want one even more!...
