Title: Massive Amount of Austrailian Repros on eBay
Post by: Doug Rose on December 03, 2017, 08:35:15 AM
it must be Christmas, as there are about 400 New designs of phones on eBay from Australia. I have never seen a phone that looked like a Polaroid camera, but this just one of these "phones". They are pricey.....Doug

For those many years from now wondering what "pricey" was after they find this topic and discover that eBay has deleted or reused the provided link turning the link dead, here is a screen shot of the auction for that pictured item, and a few other  more pricey items. I always wondered how well these sell and clicking on the "sold" items confirms my belief, not well.

With a decent cloth cord E138 could be a bit steampunky. All the others are just vile.

Maybe those new units might dry up the market for steampunk (destroyed) phones or lamps.  Now for some boob making a Polaroid model 110 Pathfinder into a lamp or phone.
