Let's be nice and say it was oversupply.  :)

Ah...  I saw the picture of the CP-400 II, it looks quite good.  *If* I did 
get a CP-400 it would probably be a 64K model II, unboxed and possibly 
grubby.  ;)  It would be for testing rather than collecting.

I wonder about the practicality of importing one though...

This site:

... says that the voltage for Brazil could be 110V, 127V, 220V or 240V!  The 
output would be PAL-M, which appears in b&w on my television.  :(

And I dread to think what the postage price would be to send it to the UK...

bye,
