[Coco] NEW NORMAL

[lciotti at lrlc.us]

Hmmm.   Looking at the $300+ one it is odd to me that it appears to have no yellowing at all, and only one photo is also odd.   What made this unit not yellow?

If I were bidding on it, I would ask to see closer up pictures, check for scuff marks, see if the warranty sticker is unbroken… etc…   Plus the seller only has 1 star rating and that’s as a buyer.
